Cloud Security

Cloud providers publish a shared responsibility model, but very few companies map it against their own configuration. The result is a gap where everyone assumes someone else is covering a control, and no one actually is. We close that gap on paper before it becomes a breach.

  1. 01
    Weeks one to two

    Map the shared responsibility model

    Cloud providers secure the infrastructure, you secure what you put on it, and the line between the two must be clear.

    • Provider's published shared responsibility documentation
    • Your actual configuration against that model
    • Gaps where no one owns a control
    • IaaS, PaaS and SaaS distinctions where you use several
  2. 02
    Weeks two to four

    Review cloud agreements

    The contract sets your rights if something goes wrong.

    • Service level agreements and uptime commitments
    • Data ownership and portability on exit
    • Liability caps and exclusions
    • Audit rights and compliance certifications offered
  3. 03
    Ongoing

    Address data residency and transfers

    Where your data physically sits has legal consequences.

    • Region selection and residency commitments
    • Cross-border transfer mechanisms under the DPDP Act
    • Government access and law enforcement request handling
    • Customer disclosures about data location

    Manage sub-processor risk

    Your cloud provider relies on its own vendors.

    • Sub-processor list and notification rights
    • Fourth-party risk flowing through to you
    • Contractual flow-down of your own obligations

    Prepare for cloud incidents

    Cloud breaches involve the provider's terms as much as your own response plan.

    • Provider breach notification timelines and channels
    • Your obligations to customers when the underlying cause is the provider
    • Coordination plan between your team and the provider

Where we come in

Five mistakes we often see.

Each one leaves a gap between what you assume is covered and what actually is.

  1. Assuming the cloud provider secures everything

    The shared responsibility model means you are responsible for your own configuration, data and access controls, regardless of how secure the underlying infrastructure is.

  2. Not reading the SLA's actual remedies

    Many SLAs offer service credits, not compensation for real losses. Know what you are actually entitled to before you need it.

  3. Ignoring where data physically resides

    Region selection affects which laws apply and what you must disclose to customers, particularly under the DPDP Act.

  4. Overlooking sub-processors

    Your provider's own vendors can be where a breach originates. Your contract should give you visibility and notification rights.

  5. No plan for a provider-side incident

    When the cause of a breach sits with your cloud provider, your obligations to your own customers do not pause while you wait for the provider's report.

Questions

Common questions.

General information only, not legal advice. Every situation differs, so speak to us about yours.

What is the shared responsibility model?

It describes which security controls the cloud provider handles and which remain your responsibility. It varies by service type, IaaS, PaaS or SaaS, and by provider.

We map it against your specific configuration so nothing falls through unnoticed.

Can we host customer data outside India?

Often yes, subject to the DPDP Act's cross-border transfer provisions and any sector-specific restrictions that may apply to your data.

We review your specific situation before you commit to a region.

What should we check before signing a cloud agreement?

Data ownership and portability on exit, liability caps relative to your actual risk, audit rights, and sub-processor disclosure are the areas most often overlooked.

We review the full agreement, not just the headline terms.

Who is liable if our cloud provider is breached?

It depends on the cause and your respective contractual obligations. Provider agreements typically limit their liability significantly, which is why your own contracts with customers need to be realistic about this risk.

We help you understand and manage this exposure.

Do you help with multi-cloud setups?

Yes, and it is often where the most contract inconsistency arises, since each provider's terms differ.

We align terms across providers so your obligations are consistent.

How much does this cost?

Agreement reviews are available as a fixed fee based on the number of providers and agreements involved.

Fees are agreed in writing before work starts.
