Design Security Into Your Cloud Migration, Not After.

Built for: Enterprises Migrating to Cloud, Banking, Manufacturing, Government

What Is Cloud Migration Security?

Cloud Migration Security ensures that when your organisation moves from on-premise infrastructure to AWS, Azure, or GCP — or between cloud providers — you do not introduce new vulnerabilities or lose existing security controls in the transition.

Many Indian businesses treat cloud migration as purely an infrastructure project. They lift-and-shift their applications, data, and workflows without redesigning security controls for the cloud model. The result is a cloud environment that inherits every vulnerability from the on-premise setup plus new cloud-specific risks like misconfigured IAM, public-facing storage, and insecure API endpoints.

Verentix provides security architecture design, control mapping, and validation testing throughout your migration — ensuring that every phase of the transition maintains or improves your security posture.

Why Your Business Needs This

We have seen Indian companies migrate to the cloud and discover months later that their security was worse than before. Common migration security failures include on-premise firewall rules translated to overly permissive security groups, database credentials hardcoded in application code now exposed in cloud-hosted repositories, compliance controls that existed in the physical data centre but have no cloud equivalent, and monitoring and logging gaps because on-premise tools do not work in the cloud.

The cost of fixing security issues after migration is 3-5x higher than building security into the migration plan from the start. A post-migration security remediation project typically takes 2-3 months and disrupts business operations. A pre-migration security design takes 2-3 weeks and prevents the problems entirely.

What You Get

Every Cloud Migration Security engagement with Verentix delivers concrete, actionable outcomes:

Security architecture design aligned with cloud provider best practices
Control mapping from on-premise security controls to cloud equivalents
IAM design with least-privilege roles and policies from day one
Network architecture with proper segmentation, private subnets, and VPN connectivity
Data protection strategy — encryption, key management, data classification
Post-migration security validation testing to confirm controls are effective

Our Approach

Pre-Migration Security Assessment (Week 1-2): We assess your current on-premise security posture, identify existing controls, and map them to cloud equivalents. We design the target security architecture.

Real Results for Indian Businesses

A manufacturing company in Pune migrated 40+ applications from their on-premise data centre to AWS. Our security design prevented an estimated 67 potential misconfigurations — including 8 critical issues that would have exposed production databases to the internet.

A financial services firm in Mumbai migrated to Azure while maintaining RBI compliance throughout the transition. Our control mapping document served as the compliance evidence during their RBI audit, and zero compliance gaps were identified post-migration.

An ed-tech startup in Bengaluru migrated from a single-server setup to a multi-account AWS architecture. Our IAM design reduced their attack surface by 80% compared to their previous flat-network setup, and the migration was completed with zero security incidents.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should we involve security in our cloud migration?expand_more
From the very beginning — during the planning phase. Security architecture decisions made early are 3-5x cheaper to implement than retrofitting security after migration. Ideally, engage us at least 4 weeks before your first workload migration.
Do you handle the actual migration?expand_more
No. We focus specifically on the security aspects — architecture design, control mapping, configuration review, and validation testing. We work alongside your migration team or cloud partner to ensure security is maintained throughout.
Which cloud providers do you support?expand_more
We design secure architectures for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. For multi-cloud migrations, we design consistent security controls across all providers.
Can you help with compliance during migration?expand_more
Yes. We map your existing compliance controls (ISO 27001, SOC 2, RBI, PCI DSS) to cloud equivalents and ensure that compliance is maintained continuously throughout the migration — not just validated after the fact.
