Data Centres & Cloud Service Providers
Data centres and cloud providers carry their customers' risk as well as their own. CERT-In's directions name data centres specifically. We help operators secure management networks, tenant isolation, physical-logical integration and logging at scale.
The risks we see most in data centres & cloud service providers
- DDoS against hosted services
- Compromise of management and hypervisor layers
- Insider and privileged access misuse
- Tenant-to-tenant lateral movement
Regulatory and compliance context
Frameworks and obligations we commonly align controls to. Applicability depends on your entity type; confirm with your compliance adviser.

Our approach for your sector
Understand
We map your sector's threats, regulators and the systems that keep operations running.
Prioritise
Controls are ranked by risk reduction and compliance impact, then matched to budget.
Implement
Deployment is planned around your operating hours, shifts and change-freeze periods.
Assure
Monitoring, reporting and audit evidence keep you protected and inspection-ready.
Questions we're often asked
Do you provide legal or regulatory advice?
No. We implement and document security controls that support regulatory obligations. Applicability and interpretation should be confirmed with your legal or compliance adviser.
Can you work within our change-freeze and audit calendar?
Yes. Project plans are built around your operating windows, audit dates and regulatory deadlines.
