Client Testimonial
John Catarinch,
CEO, Agile
As a cloud-first company, Agilyx demonstrates their commitment to data security using StickmanCyber's services.
StickmanCyber have become an extension of our own team, providing consistency and industry experience in Cloud Security.
Cloud service providers (CSPs) have transformed IT by enabling rapid deployment and scalability. However, adopting cloud technology also introduces security risks. Industry standards help organizations manage their cloud environments securely, but failure to follow them can lead to cyber threats.
As CSPs continuously evolve, organizations must take responsibility for their own security rather than relying solely on the provider.
One effective approach is using the CIS Benchmarks to secure public cloud. Centre for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmarks are globally recognised best practices for securing IT systems and data.
