Microsoft Azure Cloud Assessment and Strategy

Need assistance in developing a concrete cloud strategy for migrating to Microsoft Azure? With Centris, we offer a wide-range of services and solutions for helping organizations make the move to the cloud. An important element of successfully migrating to cloud-based solutions begins by asking the essential questions that only a proven consulting firm can help you answer. What’s the main purpose for switching to the cloud? What security, technical, and operational voids are you trying to conquer with cloud adoption? Is cloud computing the best fit for your organization, and what’s the true Return-on-Investment (ROI) Migrating to Microsoft Azure can be a complex undertaking if you’re not sure of the objectives you’re trying to meet – all the more reason for talking to the experts at Centris today.

Microsoft Azure Policies, Procedures, Plans, and Programs

Documentation in the form of policies, procedures, plans and programs is an important element of today’s cloud computing environments. From regulatory compliance demands to security best practices, your organization needs to have well-written, comprehensive information security, cybersecurity, and data privacy documentation in place. With Centris, we offer documentation writing services that deliver highly customized - Microsoft Azure specific - policies, procedures, programs, and plans.

With our extensive knowledge of the Microsoft Azure cloud platform, we can develop a wide-range of documentation specific to your organization’s operations. From access rights policies to incident response programs, data privacy programs, contingency planning/business continuity plans - and so much more - turn to Centris for all your documentation needs for Microsoft Azure.

We’ve helped hundreds of organizations throughout North America in drafting high-quality, Microsoft Azure specific documentation for the following:

NIST SP 800 Security Documentation:

From FISMA to FedRAMP, and more, our documentation writing experts can deliver security and privacy policies, procedures, programs, and plans that map directly to the NIST SP 800-53 controls for your Microsoft Azure environment. And because many of today’s compliance mandates (at least in the federal space) require adherence to the NIST SP 800 series of documents, finding a firm that has both federal policy writing expertise - and strong Microsoft Azure technical skills - is now critically important.

With Centris, we offer proven measures relating to Azure cloud cyber strategy, along with customized programscyber maturity assessmentscyber threat modeling, along with NISTDoDISO, and other cybersecurity initiatives.

We also have years of expertise working with cyber related compliance programs that rely on Azure cloud services, such as NIST RMFFISMAFBI CJISFedRAMPeMASS/NISPNIST 800-171, and CMMC

Cybersecurity Documentation:

Every organization operating the Microsoft Azure cloud needs a cybersecurity program in place, no question about it. We offer program documentation writing services for helping our Microsoft Azure clients draft high-quality, customized NIST cybersecurity programs.

DoD Security Documentation:

From CMMC to eMASS, FedRAMP, and DFARS NIST 800-171, defense contractors using Microsoft Azure (i.e., Azure for U.S. Government) must have comprehensive policy documentation in place for helping with such compliance measures. Whatever documents you need - from InfoSec to Cybersecurity, data privacy, and more - Centris can develop them for you.

ISO 27001/27002 Security Documentation

The ISO 27000 series of security documents are still a major place in the world of information security - especially in the EU. If you’re utilizing Microsoft Azure services and require ISO 27K specific policies, procedures, programs, and plans, Centris can assist. We’ve successfully worked with hundreds of EU entities - and North American businesses - in helping draft highly customized ISO specific documents.

PCI DSS:

Merchants and service providers using Microsoft Azure will greatly benefit from Centris’ policy writing services for PCI DSS compliance. From SAQ documents to Level 1 assessments, we helped organizations all throughout North America in drafting comprehensive PCI security documentation.

HIPAA, HITECH, Healthcare:

Security sensitive healthcare is critically important, and it starts with having well-written healthcare specific security and privacy policies and procedures. From HIPAA to HITECH and every other possible healthcare related law and compliance regulation, we’ve helped hundreds of healthcare companies from coast to coast in authoring high-quality documentation.

Financial Services Documentation:

The financial services sector is moving heavily towards cloud adoption, which also means that Microsoft Azure specific security and privacy policies and procedures need to be written to reflect the use of the cloud. We can tackle the most complex and demanding documentation requests for ensuring you have full coverage of all required policies, procedures, programs, and plans.

SOC 1/SOC 2 Security Documentation:

The juggernaut of regulatory compliance in North America are SOC 1 and SOC 2 audits, each of which require a heavy dose of policies and procedures to be in place. We have years of experience authoring Microsoft Azure specific documentation for both SOC 1 and SOC 2 audits.

Data Privacy Documentation:

Need data privacy documents for your Microsoft Azure environment? Talk to Centris as our data privacy program documentation is well-known throughout North America
