Traditional security assessments were built for large budgets and long timelines.
Most SMEs couldn't afford either.

NIS2, DORA, and ISO 27001 now apply to businesses of every size across the EU. But the traditional assessment model — months of scoping, consulting engagements, and manual evidence collection — was never designed for SMEs. CloudTwyst Security Assess changes that.

Traditional security assessment
  • Months from scoping to sign-off
    A traditional NIS2 or ISO 27001 assessment typically runs 3–6 months — scoping workshops, evidence collection, consultant reviews, draft reports, revisions, and final sign-off.
  • Priced for large enterprises only
    Day-rate consulting engagements and bespoke tooling make proper security assessments inaccessible for SMEs — the exact businesses NIS2 and DORA now regulate.
  • Results are stale before they're delivered
    By the time a 6-month assessment is complete, the cloud environment has changed. The report reflects a point in time that no longer exists.
  • Manual evidence, no audit trail
    Compliance evidence is collected in spreadsheets and shared drives — difficult to verify, impossible to chain-hash, and a liability in any regulatory review.
CloudTwyst Security Assess
  • Results in minutes, not months
    Connect your cloud environment, run the assessment, and see your NIS2, DORA, or ISO 27001 posture score — with per-control findings and a prioritised remediation backlog — in minutes. Depending on environment size.
  • Subscription-based — accessible to mid-market and enterprise
    Flat-rate subscription pricing replaces day-rate consulting. Any regulated EU organisation can access a full NIS2, DORA, or ISO 27001 assessment online — no procurement cycle required.
  • Always current — re-assess any time
    Run a new assessment whenever your environment changes. Each engagement is independent, governed, and purged after sign-off — so there's no legacy data risk and no stale reports.
  • Automated evidence, immutable audit trail
    Evidence is collected automatically from your cloud environment. Every action in the assessment lifecycle is chain-hashed and logged — audit-ready from day one.

Four frameworks. Three cloud providers. One assessment platform — online.

CloudTwyst Security Assess automates the full assessment lifecycle — from connecting your cloud environment to delivering a board-ready compliance report — in a single governed SaaS workflow that replaces months of manual consulting work.

01 — Cloud Connector
Azure, AWS & GCP — read-only, no agents
The connector runs inside the customer's own cloud environment, calls cloud provider APIs locally, and securely submits collected security posture data to CloudTwyst Assess via a single authenticated ingest endpoint. CloudTwyst never connects to the customer's cloud directly — no inbound connections, no persistent access.
Multi-cloud
02 — Framework Scoring
NIS2 · DORA · ISO 27001 · GDPR
Ingested cloud data is evaluated against four EU compliance frameworks. Per-control gap analysis with a posture score, findings list, and prioritised remediation backlog — generated automatically.
Compliance
03 — Assessment Lifecycle
From draft to sign-off — governed & auditable
A state machine takes each engagement from collecting through assessed, remediating, and report delivered to signed-off and purged. Two-step OTP sign-off and three automatic data retention paths built in.
Governance
04 — Report Engine
Word, PowerPoint & CSV — board-ready
Assessment findings exported as board-ready reports in Word, PowerPoint, and CSV. Azure DevOps work item creation maps each gap directly to your engineering backlog — no manual translation.
Reporting
05 — Enterprise Remediation
Automated fixes — inside your environment
Trigger remediation inside the customer's own cloud account via signed runbooks (Azure), SSM documents (AWS), or Cloud Run Jobs (GCP). CloudTwyst never holds write access to any customer environment.
Automation

Enterprise-grade capability, out of the box — no configuration marathon required.

CloudTwyst ships with pre-built frameworks, templates, and connectors covering the most common enterprise cloud governance scenarios. You're productive on day one, not month six.

Cloud Provider Connectors
Lightweight connectors for Azure, AWS, and GCP — deployed inside the customer's environment. Each connector collects security posture data locally and submits it to CloudTwyst via a short-lived authenticated token. No agents, no inbound connections.
AzureAWSGCP

From cloud environment to compliance posture score — in four steps, in minutes.

What used to take months of consulting engagement, manual evidence collection, and back-and-forth report revisions is now a governed, automated workflow. The same rigour — a fraction of the time.

Connect

Deploy the read-only connector to your cloud environment — Azure, AWS, or GCP. A short-lived engagement token scopes access to this assessment only. No agents, no write access, no persistent footprint.

Assess

CloudTwyst Security Assess evaluates your cloud security posture against NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, and GDPR controls automatically. Per-control scoring, gap identification, and a prioritised remediation backlog — generated in minutes.

Remediate

Findings are tracked through a governed remediation lifecycle. Gaps map to your Azure DevOps backlog automatically. Enterprise customers can trigger remediation runbooks inside their own cloud environment — CloudTwyst never holds write access.

Sign off & purge

When remediation is complete, the customer signs off the engagement with a two-step OTP confirmation. Board-ready reports are exported in Word, PowerPoint, and CSV. All customer insight data is then purged — leaving only a tamper-evident audit stub.

Enterprise teams come to CloudTwyst through the problem they need to solve.

Platform capability mapped to the real enterprise use cases — from FinOps programs to compliance audits to operational automation.

Built for enterprises where cloud governance is mission-critical.

CloudTwyst is designed around the governance realities of regulated, complex, and high-scale enterprise environments — where the cost of a misconfiguration or access failure is measured in risk, not just inconvenience.

Security is a platform characteristic, not a feature layer.

CloudTwyst is built from the ground up for enterprise security requirements — from access control to data handling to integration standards.

  • Role-based access control
    Granular permission models at the workspace, module, and resource level. Every user sees only what their role permits — enforced by the platform, not by trust.
  • Immutable audit trails
    Every action, approval, exception, and configuration change is logged with timestamp, actor, and context. Tamper-evident records for audit and regulatory evidence.
  • Policy-driven access control
    Zero-standing-access patterns. Time-bound entitlements, just-in-time approval, and automated access expiry enforced through the governance engine.
  • Secure integrations
    OAuth 2.0, SAML, and OIDC for identity federation. Encrypted at rest and in transit. Supports BYOK encryption for regulated environments.
