Cloud Security Consultancy · Benelux

Know Your Risk.
Strengthen Your Cloud.

Your partner in cloud security.

Security that scales with your business.

Security that keeps pace as you grow

Moving fast in the cloud means your risk and your obligations grow faster than a small team can manage. The gaps stay out of sight until they surface at the worst time, a breach that hits your reputation or a funding round that stalls in due diligence. Custos Cloud is the senior security partner that closes them, so you can keep building and sell with confidence, without standing up a security team of your own.

On their own, the risks in your cloud are scattered and easy to miss. An assessment brings them into the light.

Where to start

We help startups and scale-ups secure their cloud. For almost everyone, the right first step is the same.

Recommended starting point

Custos Secure Baseline

Most teams do not know where their security stands, or what to fix first. The baseline answers both: a maturity score across your whole programme, the floor enterprise security reviews look for, and a ranked plan to reach it.

Know which level you need to reach

Most teams assume more maturity is always better. For a startup it is not. Level 2 (Managed) is the right starting point. At that level, every part of your security has an owner, is written down, and operates day to day. That clears the security reviews your enterprise customers run. The higher levels add formalisation and measurement a young company does not need yet.

The Custos Cycle

How the work fits together

New services ship, the team grows, and what you have to protect grows with it. A security posture is a snapshot, accurate the day it is measured and out of date soon after. So we run the work as a method, sized each round to where you are now, from five people to two hundred.

Every round is measured against the last, and leaves proof you can show a buyer, an auditor or an investor.
