Given the complexity of their setup, Up Norway was now looking for external validation to certify security and efficiency, highlight weak points to be improved, and align to all the AWS best practices.

  • Special focus was put on Security, highlighting all the High-Risk Issues (HRIs) with the highest priority

  • Complete reports on the infrastructure status were generated, touching all the AWS best practices and certifying the results achieved.

Business Outcome
