Cloud Services

Cloud services form the foundation of modern digital transformation strategies, helping companies transition from traditional infrastructure to more flexible, secure, and scalable environments. Here is a detailed breakdown of the components and sub-services within this category:
 

• Core Services 
  • Ready-Made Cloud Solutions: The design and implementation of custom solutions hosted on leading platforms such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Amazon Web Services (AWS).
    • IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Provision of computing, storage, and networking resources on demand.
    • PaaS (Platform as a Service): Supports application development without the need to manage the underlying infrastructure.
    • SaaS (Software as a Service): Provides ready-to-use applications with regular maintenance and updates.
  • Cloud Migration Services
    • Transferring current applications and systems from traditional environments to cloud environments. 
      • Assessment and Analysis: Examining the current infrastructure to determine migration requirements.
      • Migration Plan: Developing a comprehensive strategy to ensure business continuity with minimal disruption.
      • Implementation of Migration: Transferring applications while improving performance and ensuring the highest levels of security.
  • Cloud Enablement
    • Development and preparation of new applications to be cloud-friendly from the start. 
      • Design of Native Cloud Applications: Using best practices to ensure scalability and high availability.
      • Security and Compliance: Ensuring that applications are secure and comply with international standards.
  • Cloud Optimization
    • Continuous improvement of cloud environments to maximize resource benefits and reduce costs.
      • Performance Analysis: Regular review of system performance and identification of improvement points.
      • Cost Management: Optimizing resource consumption to reduce expenses without impacting performance.
      • Security Enhancement: Applying regular security updates and continuous threat assessment.
         
• Cloud Systems Engineering 
  • Designing and deploying container-based solutions using Docker and Kubernetes technologies to achieve maximum flexibility and scalability.
    • Docker: Creating isolated environments for efficient application operation. 
    • Kubernetes: Organizing and managing application containers for better stability and reliability.
  • Re-engineering Systems for the Cloud: Transforming traditional applications designed for on-premises systems into genuine cloud solutions.
    • Analysis of Existing Applications: Identifying aspects that need modification to operate efficiently in a cloud environment.
    • Redesign: Rebuilding applications using container technologies and microservices to provide an integrated cloud operating environment.
  • Visibility and Monitoring of Applications: Implementing advanced systems to monitor applications and systems hosted in the cloud to ensure proactive management and performance improvement.
    • Logging and Monitoring: Using specialized tools to collect and analyse system and application logs.
    • Alerting and Response: Implementing early warning mechanisms to deal with failures or security challenges before they impact operations.
       
• Digital Transformation is not just about moving applications to the cloud; it includes redesigning processes to enhance efficiency and innovation. The axes include: 
  • Technology Integration: Integrating advanced technologies to simplify and enhance business processes through the use of cloud platforms.
    • Process Automation: Using cloud tools to automate workflows and lighten the load on technical teams.
    • Improving Customer Experience: Providing flexible and responsive services to meet changing market needs.
  • Supporting Growth and Expansion: Enabling organizations to achieve sustainable growth through cloud solutions that offer immediate and economical scalability. 
    • Scalability on Demand: Providing scalable infrastructure quickly to meet sudden increases in business requirements.
    • Operational Flexibility: Supporting business strategies by offering flexible and market-aligned cloud solutions. 

Physical Security / Identity Management

• Physical Security and Identity Management
  • Physical Security: Implementing integrated security solutions to protect data centres and the physical infrastructure of the organization. 
    • Physical Security Assessments: Conducting periodic checks to ensure that facilities are resistant to physical attacks.
    • Resilience Testing Against Threats: Simulating scenarios of engineering and social attacks to verify system readiness.
  • Identity and Electronic Identification Management: Ensuring the security of systems and data through managing the lifecycle of user access and control.
    • User Lifecycle Management: Providing mechanisms for automatically registering and deactivating accounts, managing roles using solutions like Microsoft Entra ID. 
    • Access Control Implementation: Applying Zero Trust principles and securing privileged accounts using tools such as Privileged Access Management (PAM) and Privileged Identity Management (PIM). 
    • Modern Authentication and Unified Access: Enhancing security with modern authentication solutions and Single Sign-On (SSO) to simplify access to sensitive systems.
