NHN Techorus Announces New Google Cloud Security Assessment Service

NHN Techorus, a prominent managed service provider headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has officially unveiled its latest offering: a Google Cloud security assessment service. This new service is a valuable addition to their existing comprehensive cloud support package called C-Chorus, which has recently surpassed 7,000 contracts and continues to expand rapidly.

Overview of the Service

The Google Cloud Security Assessment Service provides a variety of security diagnostic procedures, starting from cloud infrastructure all the way to applications. The goal is to identify vulnerabilities and propose measures to improve security postures for companies utilizing the Google Cloud platform.

As the adoption of cloud services rises, especially among small and startup companies, so too has the emergence of cyber incidents related to cloud-specific challenges. Current concerns also encompass rising costs associated with managing cloud security effectively.

In the cloud environment, issues such as misconfigurations and inadequate vulnerability assessments can lead to serious security risks, including unauthorized access, data breaches, and malware infections. Therefore, maintaining cyber security is not just a technical issue but a crucial business management challenge that requires thoughtful consideration across various departments.

Detailed Diagnostic Services

NHN Techorus's new service goes beyond standard infrastructure diagnostics for cloud environments. It includes assessments for vulnerabilities in applications that operate within these cloud settings. The service aims to reduce potential security risks such as system downtime and information leakage by identifying weak points and providing recommendations for improvement.

The Google Cloud Security Assessment Service includes several key components:

• - Infrastructure and Configuration Diagnosis: Examining IAM roles and permissions, identifying excessive privileges, underutilized service accounts, and scrutinizing service account key management to ensure that they are not inappropriately shared or neglected.
• - Network Analysis: Ensuring that access from `0.0.0.0/0` isn’t permitted carelessly and that unnecessary ports are not exposed to the internet. The service checks whether virtual machines, databases, and storage buckets are unintentionally public and assesses the adequacy of firewall rule settings.
• - Platform Assessment: This involves checking for misconfigurations in operating systems, middleware, and network settings, as well as identifying any unused services or weak password practices.
• - Application Security Audits: Understanding risks such as privilege escalation and inspecting authentication processes, including potential SQL injection vulnerabilities that might compromise data integrity.
