Over-broad permissions
Many people and services can do far more than they need.
What we doMove to least-privilege roles and review them regularly.
Bridging the technology gap
We lock down your cloud accounts, protect data with encryption and tested backups, and plan how to recover quickly if something goes wrong, then prove it with a drill.
Recovery plan and drills. A written plan, with targets, practised so it works on the day
MOUNTSMY provides cloud security and disaster recovery from Ahmedabad, India: reviewing and hardening AWS, Azure and Google Cloud accounts, access control and multi-factor sign-in, encryption and secrets, logging and alerts, automated backups with tested restores, and a written recovery plan with recovery-time and recovery-point targets. Changes are made through your normal approval steps, in your own accounts.
Most cloud incidents come from loose access and untested backups, not from clever attacks.
An example path, drawn by us. Your review shows yours.
These are the gaps we find most often.

Most of the risk is removed by a short list of habits.
Least privilege, multi-factor sign-in and tidy access.
Encryption and safe secrets handling.

Roles and steps written down and practised.
A few terms decide how you plan.
| Term | Meaning | Question it answers |
|---|---|---|
| Backup | A copy of data kept so it can be restored | Can we get the data back? |
| Disaster recovery | The plan and setup to get systems running again after a serious failure | How do we get back to work? |
| RPO (recovery point objective) | How much recent data you can afford to lose, measured in time | How far back do we restore? |
| RTO (recovery time objective) | How long you can be down before it hurts | How fast must we be back? |
