Common Questions

Security & Compliance FAQ

The AWS Shared Responsibility Model divides security obligations between AWS and customers. AWS is responsible for the security of the cloud โ€” physical infrastructure, hardware, networking, and hypervisor. Customers are responsible for security in the cloud โ€” operating systems, applications, data, network configuration, identity and access management, and encryption. MaximyzCloud helps customers fully implement and continuously monitor their side of the shared responsibility model, ensuring no security gaps exist in the customer-owned security layer.

MaximyzCloud supports ISO 27001 certification by mapping AWS security controls to ISO 27001 Annex A requirements, implementing an ISMS (Information Security Management System) using AWS services, preparing the Statement of Applicability and risk treatment plan, deploying technical controls via Infrastructure-as-Code, and conducting pre-certification gap assessments. We coordinate with your chosen ISO 27001 certification body and provide evidence packages that significantly reduce assessment time and cost. Our 99.8% first-time audit pass rate reflects the completeness of our preparation methodology.

MaximyzCloud deploys a comprehensive AWS-native security monitoring stack including GuardDuty for threat detection and anomaly identification, Security Hub for centralised security findings aggregation and compliance scoring, CloudTrail for API-level audit logging, Config for configuration compliance monitoring and drift detection, Macie for sensitive data discovery in S3, Inspector for vulnerability scanning, and CloudWatch for custom security metrics and alerting. These are integrated with automated response playbooks using Lambda and Systems Manager for immediate remediation of common findings.

Yes โ€” MaximyzCloud implements HIPAA-compliant AWS architectures for healthcare organisations and businesses handling Protected Health Information (PHI). This includes restricting workloads to AWS HIPAA-eligible services, configuring encryption at rest and in transit for all PHI, implementing minimum-necessary access controls, deploying audit logging for all PHI access, establishing Business Associate Agreements with AWS, and documenting technical safeguards to demonstrate HIPAA Security Rule compliance. We also prepare the required HIPAA technical safeguard documentation needed for compliance audits and BAA reviews.

AWS Well-Architected Reviews and formal security assessments should be conducted at minimum annually, and following any significant infrastructure changes, new service adoption, or security incidents. However, MaximyzCloud recommends continuous automated compliance monitoring using AWS Config and Security Hub as the primary ongoing mechanism โ€” with quarterly security posture reviews and annual comprehensive assessments. For regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, government), more frequent formal assessments may be required by specific regulatory obligations.

PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is a prescriptive, industry-mandated framework specifically protecting cardholder data environments โ€” required for any business that processes, stores, or transmits payment card data. SOC 2 is a voluntary attestation framework based on AICPA Trust Service Criteria that demonstrates general security, availability, and confidentiality controls to enterprise customers. Many businesses pursue both: PCI DSS for payment processing compliance and SOC 2 for enterprise customer trust. MaximyzCloud designs AWS control implementations that satisfy both frameworks simultaneously โ€” reducing total compliance cost and effort.
