by Antoine Leclef In an era where cyber threats evolve faster than ever, building a resilient security posture isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. Yet many organizations struggle to understand where to start or how to scale their efforts effectively. That’s where our CLWD Security Journey comes in. A strategic journey designed to guide organizations from foundational security practices to industry-leading resilience. What is the Security Journey? The Security Journey is a tailored, phased approach to improving cybersecurity maturity. Whether an organization is laying its first security bricks or refining a sophisticated operation, this journey provides a clear, actionable roadmap aligned with business needs and regulatory standards like the European NIS2 directive. It begins with a comprehensive assessment using our Security Maturity Matrix, which evaluates the current security posture across key domains. From there, organizations are mapped into one of three distinct stages: Security Fo

By Filip Anné Twee maanden. Zo lang ben ik nu mee aan het bouwen aan CLWD. Samen met vijf absolute toppers heb ik de sprong gewaagd om een nieuw hoofdstuk te starten—één dat draait rond technologie en mensen, en vooral de combinatie. Tijd voor een eerste reflectie. Van infrastructuur naar innovatie Mijn achtergrond ligt in de traditionele IT-infrastructuur. Ik ben ooit begonnen als system engineer en leidde uiteindelijk een team van zo’n honderd engineers. Maar ondanks die schaal en verantwoordelijkheid ben ik altijd dicht bij de technologie én bij de klant gebleven. Die betrokkenheid is iets waar ik nooit afstand van wou nemen. CLWD is daar eigenlijk een logisch vervolg op. Het geeft me de kans om opnieuw van dichtbij te werken met mensen die bouwen, implementeren, en gebruiken. Maar deze keer met een duidelijke focus: cloud. Cloud is geen kopie van on-prem Wat me het meest opvalt na twee maanden in de wereld van cloudoplossingen? Hoe vaak cloud nog vergeleken wordt met on-premise sys

Welcome to our first CLWD-Blog, happy you're here! In this blogpost, we will deep dive into Cloud Journeys! At CLWD we believe your cloud-approach might face challenges, and although all paths lead to Rome, we have standardized the solution to the different challenges into five Cloud Journeys. Cloud Foundation Compliancy FinOps Migration Modernization Cloud Foundation Just like every building or apartment, you need a solid foundation before you can start building. Skipping that step would lead to crucial building errors later on. The same principles apply in the Cloud. Start Right > Keep Right > Make Right is a principle that's in our DNA. Starting right makes sure that, at the start of your cloud journey, you lay a solid foundation, ready to scale, secure, well-architected and compliant. It will be very frictionless to now build your cloud environment and maintain it. Keeping that setup, maintaining it and adapting it to the ever changing needs, is something that can be picked up in o
