Unlock Secure, Compliant Cloud Governance with AWS Control Tower SDP
In today’s cloud-first era, multi-account environments and rapid innovation bring incredible opportunity; but also significant risk. Without the right controls, businesses face governance gaps, inconsistent security controls, regulatory exposure and lack of clarity across their cloud estate.
Our solution built on AWS Control Tower SDP provides a foundation designed for governed, secure, scalable, and compliant cloud environments.
What is AWS Control Tower SDP?
AWS Control Tower (Service Delivery Platform) is a managed framework that helps you establish and govern a secure, multi-account AWS environment. With pre-built guardrails, automated policy enforcement, organizational unit (OU) structure, audit-ready configuration and landing-zone workflows, you can:
- Set up a multi-account AWS landing zone within minutes with best-practice governance.
- Enforce compliance and security at scale by applying automated controls across all accounts.
- Gain visibility into configuration drift, guardrail violations and overall compliance posture.
- Integrate seamlessly with other AWS services (such as AWS Organizations, AWS ServiceCatalog, AWS CloudTrail, AWS Config) and build on a future-ready foundation for innovation.
Why choose this solution with us?
Our team are AWS-certified, experienced in landing zone, multi-account governance and security architecture, and understand the regulatory landscape in the Middle East, especially the UAE
We build with a deep awareness of UAE data protection laws (such as DESC and Data Protection Laws) and regional cloud sovereignty initiatives (such as the UAE Sovereign Launchpad).
We establish guardrails, enforce identity and access controls, implement account structure and OU design, enable monitoring and remediation workflows, and manage ongoing drift and compliance.
Our architecture emphasizes encryption, key-management (customer-owned keys where needed), data residency, operational transparency, and least-privilege access.
Whether you’re just starting your cloud journey or already running hundreds of accounts, the platform scales to support your business, regulatory and operational needs.
Key Features & Benefits
Pre-packaged guardrails (mandatory, strongly-recommended), centrally managed policies, drift detection, account provisioning workflow, unified logging and audit trail.
Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls, least-privilege permissions, VPC and network baselining, data-encryption in-transit and at-rest, restrict data egress, and integrate with your SIEM/SOAR for continuous monitoring.
Choose where data and workloads reside (e.g., AWS Middle East (UAE) Region), restrict egress, implement data-local encryption keys, align with local laws. AWS states customers remain in control of their data location and governance choices.
Dashboard view of account compliance, guardrail violations, resource inventory, and continuous auditing across accounts and regions.
Rapid provisioning of landing zone, standard account blueprint, policy baseline and templates so you spend less time building and more time innovating.
By enforcing standard account structures, tagging, budget controls and guardrails, you reduce waste, avoid misconfiguration and maintain cleaner environments.
Why Governance & Security Matter — Especially in the UAE
The UAE is rapidly adopting cloud across government, financial services, healthcare and regulated sectors. With that comes increasing regulatory obligations around data protection, residency, auditability and digital sovereignty.
- The PDPL governs collection, use and processing of personal data in the UAE.
- The launch of the UAE Sovereign Launchpad (in partnership between AWS, e& and the UAE Cybersecurity Council) enables cloud adoption for regulated entities while ensuring data sovereignty and compliance.
- Digital sovereignty is not just a technical choice — it’s a strategic business imperative: ensuring your data remains under your control, aligned with your national policy, and not inadvertently exposed through global blast-zones of risk.
Missing or weak governance can lead to shadow-accounts, configuration drift, unknown data egress, non-compliance, audit failures, increased attack surface and regulatory risk. A governance-first architecture with security and sovereignty built-in moves you from reactive to proactive, from risk-laden to resilient.
Typical Use Cases
Large enterprises deploying dozens/hundreds of AWS accounts across business units or geographies and needing standardised governance.
Public sector or regulated industry organisations in the UAE that require data-residency, audit-ready controls, standardised account structure, and strong oversight.
Organisations extending from single-account AWS use into multi-account environments and needing consistent policies, tag enforcement, cost-control, guardrail management.
Cloud innovation hubs launching new workloads (AI/ML, IoT, data analytics) who want to move fast without compromising governance or security.
How We Deliver
We conduct a discovery of your existing AWS estate (if any), review your governance-, security- and compliance-baseline, and define your target landing zone and guardrail taxonomy aligned to UAE/regional requirements.
Build the AWS Control Tower SDP foundation (organisations, OUs, account factory, guardrails, log archive, audit account, baseline identities, networking).
Layer in IAM baseline, network baselining (VPCs, subnets, transit), logging/monitoring, encryption key-management, region controls, data-residency policies, and integrate with SIEM/SOAR as needed.
Define data-residency zones, egress controls, encryption key-custody, access-controls to meet national/regional sovereignty requirements.
Provide dashboards, role-based access to governance tools, training to your teams, runbooks for account provisioning, guardrail violation remediation workflows.
We provide ongoing monitoring, drift detection, guardrail updates, remediation, periodic reviews and optimisation as your cloud footprint grows.
