Cloud Security& Compliance
Security built into your cloud from the start. You can see it working, and it stays on as you grow.
Built in, not bolted on
We secure Azure by following Microsoft's own best practice and well-known standards. Security is part of the platform itself, so you get visibility, control and protection from day one.
Because it is built into the foundation, everything new inherits the same rules on its own. Risks are watched all the time as your platform grows.

What We Deliver
Rules enforced automatically
Azure Policy set up so known standards (CIS, Microsoft benchmarks) are enforced everywhere, on their own.
Microsoft Defender for Cloud
Microsoft Defender for Cloud set up to watch your whole estate for weak spots and threats, all the time.
Who can access what
Multi-factor sign-in and least-privilege rules, protecting users, service accounts and admin roles.
Threats spotted in real time
Microsoft Sentinel connected, so security events get spotted, matched up and alerted on.
Assessments with a fix list
A structured review that finds the gaps, mistakes and risks, then hands you a fix plan in priority order.
Compliance that keeps up
Controls mapped to known frameworks and applied the same way everywhere, as things change.
Protected as you scale
Without structure, cloud security turns reactive. Mistakes slip through, threats go unseen, and compliance fails quietly.
We build the rules into the environment itself and watch the risks continuously. Breaches become less likely, compliance becomes simpler, and you can show that the platform stays protected as it changes.
Fewer incidents
Rules enforced everywhere, watched all the time. Incidents become less likely.
Simpler compliance
Controls mapped to recognised frameworks, easy to evidence in an audit.
You can see it working
Live monitoring shows your platform staying protected as it evolves.

Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most often about securing Azure environments.
What does Rosebud's Cloud Security & Compliance service cover?
The whole picture: who can get at what, the rules that keep things safe, threat alerts through Microsoft Defender for Cloud, encryption, and ongoing checks against known standards. The goal is one set-up the platform enforces on its own. No person has to remember to check.
How is this different from adding security to an existing Azure environment later?
Security added later tends to be patchy. Some things get covered, others get missed, and it all slips over time. We build security into the platform itself. Everything new inherits the same protection by default. The platform does the enforcing, not a yearly audit.
Which security standards and frameworks do you align to?
The ones that matter to you. Typically ISO 27001, NIST CSF, CIS and the Microsoft benchmark, plus sector rules such as FCA guidance for finance or NCSC principles for the public sector. We check all the time, not once a year.
How does Microsoft Defender for Cloud fit into what you deliver?
It is one part of the answer, not all of it. We set it up to watch your whole estate for threats and weak spots, tune what it flags, and feed its alerts into your monitoring. We will also tell you plainly where Defender alone is not enough.
What does a typical cloud security engagement look like?
Most start with a review. We check your set-up against the Microsoft benchmark and your target standards, then hand you a fix list in priority order. We can make the fixes, or hand your team the playbooks. Ongoing cover comes through our Managed Cloud service.
How do you keep an Azure environment compliant over time, not just at point of delivery?
It slips the moment the project ends. So we set up rules and alerts that surface a problem the day it happens, not six months later in an audit. Where it is safe, the rules go further: a bad change is blocked or fixed on its own, so it never takes hold.
