Aquia Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) specializing in cloud and cybersecurity professional services, today announced the availability of its Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Security Assessment. The offering will pair automation with deep cloud security expertise to provide customers with contextualized, relevant findings from their assessment.
"Often, when an organization seeks to assess the holistic security posture of its AWS account, they receive outputs that lack the context needed to drive decision-making without placing an undue burden on their team," said Dustin Whited, director of security engineering at Aquia. "We are removing ambiguity from the process by pairing automation with industry-leading subject matter expertise to analyze outputs and provide meaningful insights into the risks and priorities most relevant to each customer."
By leveraging Aquia's AWS Cloud Security Assessment, organizations can proactively identify and address security gaps, reducing the risk of security incidents and enhancing the overall security of their AWS account.
Benefits include:
Identifying weaknesses within your AWS account proactively and taking corrective actions before they are exploited by malicious actors.
Ensuring proper access controls, encryption mechanisms, backup strategies, and other security measures are in place to safeguard valuable information.
Reducing the risk of unauthorized access and subsequent security incidents.
Minimizing the impact of potential security breaches or incidents that may occur with an effective response plan.
Embracing continuous improvement.

Zesty, a pioneer in dynamic cloud infrastructure solutions, today announced that it has partnered with skyPurple Cloud, the public cloud operations specialists for enterprises. With Zesty, skyPurple Cloud's customers have already reduced their average monthly EC2 Linux On-Demand costs by 44% on AWS.
While cloud spend continues to increase, growth has reportedly slowed as companies remain cautious during economic uncertainty. In order to reduce cloud costs, many organizations depend on developers to constantly monitor and manage EC2 resources and cloud spend manually rather than overprovision and commit to a long-term discount plan.
skyPurple Cloud empowers businesses with support solutions for public cloud implementation. As part of its tailor-made approach, skyPurple Cloud customers employ Zesty's technology to optimally scale and automate cloud operations to drive sustainable growth and cut costs. Within the first month of implementation, skyPurple Cloud customers noticed a significant increase in service quotas for Amazon EC2 instances and saved developers considerable time and money by automatically handling quota requests on customers' behalf.
"Particularly during such a challenging time for so many, skyPurple Cloud understands how crucial it is for businesses to maintain performance and reduce costs," said Maxim Melamedov, CEO and co-founder of Zesty. "Companies are no longer able to ignore overspending and settle for suboptimal rates for their cloud resources. EC2 instances quickly become very expensive to run and companies must ensure that more of their workloads are covered by discount programs that will dramatically push down this cost premium. We're thrilled that skyPurple Cloud is helping its customers to stay cost-efficient by implementing Zesty."
"skyPurple Cloud plays a key role on the path to achieve cloud optimisation in the UK market," said Lucia Meyassed, Global Partner Manager Team Lead at Zesty. "We're excited to see its customers already saving a great deal in the cloud with Zesty and look forward to enabling even more UK-based organisations to maximize their cloud savings potential."
"At skyPurple Cloud, we know the substantial value automation tools hold for companies when it comes to optimally managing cloud infrastructure and the costs that come with it," said Roy Long, founder of skyPurple Cloud. "Zesty is the gift these companies have been waiting for – delivering cost savings in just a few days and significantly decreasing monthly AWS bills."
