Synaptic, an alternative data platform, enables financial firms and investors to gain actionable insights from vast data sets. They partnered with SquareOps, an AWS Advanced Tier partner specializing in DevOps and cloud security, to enhance their security posture and ensure compliance with industry standards.
Synaptic faced challenges with fragmented security measures across multiple AWS accounts, leading to inconsistent practices and a lack of unified visibility. This fragmentation hindered the ability to quickly identify and respond to security incidents, increasing the risk of breaches.
To address this, Synaptic required fine-grained control over network traffic between various AWS accounts to prevent unauthorized access and potential data breaches. They sought enhanced network security with centralized monitoring of the entire Security posture across multiple AWS accounts, to ensure immediate detection of any security incidents.
Moreover, aligning with ISO27001 standards was crucial for Synaptic to maintain data integrity, confidentiality, and availability, as well as to pass regular audits. Non-compliance could result in data breaches, loss of customer trust, and legal repercussions, significantly impacting Synaptic’s business operations.
To address these opportunities, SquareOps designed and implemented a comprehensive security architecture using various AWS services. The project involved creating a dedicated AWS Security Account to centralize Cloud Security Posture Management(CSPM) and network security infrastructure.
Synaptic achieved a strong and centralized security management system, significantly improving their threat detection and response capabilities. Implemented network security measures that provided fine-grained control over traffic, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.
