01 · Assess

Kubernetes Platform Health Assessment

An independent review of your Kubernetes platform and the AWS accounts it runs in: security, compliance readiness and cost, with a prioritised plan to fix what matters.

What you get

Health Score Report

Security & Compliance and Cost Efficiency, each rated Critical, At Risk or Healthy, with an executive summary.

Security Review

Findings against the CIS EKS Benchmark, CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark and AWS Well-Architected Security Pillar.

Cost Analysis

Where your cloud spend goes, with the waste and savings found in each category.

Prioritised Plan

Prioritised actions with effort estimates, starting with the quick wins.

02 · Build

Security-Hardened Kubernetes Platform Build

A custom Kubernetes platform built in your AWS accounts and hardened from day one. Everything is automated and defined as Terraform or OpenTofu code your team owns.

Hardened from day one

  • CIS-benchmarked clusters
  • Least-privilege access
  • Policy guardrails
  • Managed secrets
  • Audit logging
  • GitOps delivery

Included in every build

Infrastructure as Code

All Terraform or OpenTofu modules delivered to your repo. You own the code, no licensing fees ever.

Documentation

Architecture Decision Records, runbooks and control mappings your team and auditors can follow.

Knowledge Transfer

A live handover session and recorded walkthroughs, so your team can run the platform from day one.

About

15 years of hands-on cloud infrastructure experience, from Rackspace to government.

Today the focus is on secure Kubernetes platforms for modern production workloads.
