Caylent Catalysts™

Enhanced AWS Control Tower

Accelerate the adoption of a production ready AWS foundation, and establish automated security guardrails to keep existing and new accounts in compliance with your desired security posture.

What is it?

Fast track your adoption of AWS Control Tower to enable scalable governance of your multi-account AWS landscape with Caylent Catalysts™ 

AWS Control Tower is the AWS native way to streamline management of your AWS Landing Zone, a secure, compliant multi-account foundation, allowing you to quickly spin-up additional accounts, consolidate billing, group accounts, and apply policies to those groups.

Caylent’s experience working with complex technology organizations that require regulatory compliance has resulted in our team setting up hundreds of AWS Control Tower foundations. Caylent works alongside clients on new AWS Control Tower setups or can help organizations migrate from a traditional Landing Zone to AWS Control Tower.

This solution accelerates implementation of a production ready AWS foundation with AWS Control Tower. Establish automated security guardrails using AWS native services, tune controls to your specific requirements and enable alerting to keep your existing and new AWS accounts in compliance with your intended security posture.
