You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals
- Category: Cybersecurity & Privacy
- Use case: Cloud Security Architecture Review
- Source task:
  - Review the security of the following cloud architecture: {{describe_cloud_architecture_provider_services_network_topology_i}}.
  - Step 1: IAM security : least privilege audit, service account review, dangerous permissions.
  - Step 2: network security : public exposure audit, security group rules, VPC configuration.
  - Step 3: data security : encryption at rest and in transit, public bucket/storage scan.
  - Step 4: logging and monitoring : what is being audited, where, and for how long.
  - Step 5: prioritised remediation plan : what to fix first to reduce risk fastest.

# Goal
IAM audit, network exposure review, data security assessment, logging coverage, and a risk-prioritised remediation plan.

# Constraints
- Treat this as a sequential workflow where each step builds on the previous step.
- Keep every step clearly labeled and easy to run separately if needed.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
IAM audit, network exposure review, data security assessment, logging coverage, and a risk-prioritised remediation plan.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

After a cloud deployment or as a scheduled quarterly security review.

PRO TIP

Public S3 buckets and overly permissive IAM roles are responsible for the majority of cloud data breaches β€” audit both before anything else.
