Any SaaS business should be putting high importance on optimizing and securing its AWS environments and making them operationally efficient, all while using best practices. This helps safeguard your infrastructure, your business, and your customers. For AWS partners, this process is formalized through the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR). But what exactly is AWS FTR, why does it exist, and how can companies streamline the process to avoid common pitfalls? We’ll explore these questions and show how Thoropass can help simplify your FTR journey.
The AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR) is a rigorous process that AWS partners must undergo to ensure their solutions are built according to AWS’s best practices. The primary goal of the FTR is to help partners identify and remediate any potential risks related to security, reliability, and operational efficiency before launching or scaling their solutions on the AWS platform.
During the FTR, partners conduct a self-assessment and then collaborate with AWS Solutions Architects to review their solutions. This review includes evaluating the architecture, design, and implementation against AWS’s best practice guidelines. By passing the FTR, partners can demonstrate their technical competence and the robustness of their solutions, gaining credibility and trust in the market.
AWS FTR exists to maintain a high standard of quality and consistency among solutions built on the AWS platform. It is designed to ensure that AWS partners adhere to best practices, thereby protecting end-users and maintaining the integrity of the AWS ecosystem.
For AWS partners, passing the FTR is not just a technical milestone; but a strategic advantage. A successful FTR not only validates the technical capabilities of a solution but also enhances its marketability. Moreover, partners who pass the FTR gain access to additional AWS resources and support, which can be pivotal in accelerating their go-to-market strategies.
In the broader cloud computing industry, processes similar to AWS FTR are becoming increasingly common. Major cloud service providers, such as Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, have their own sets of guidelines and review processes to ensure that partner solutions meet stringent technical and security standards.
The adoption of these reviews is particularly prevalent among companies operating in highly regulated industries, such as finance, healthcare, and government. As the cloud landscape becomes more competitive, the importance of adhering to these standards cannot be overstated. For many companies, undergoing a technical review like AWS FTR is not just a requirement—it’s a critical step in building and maintaining customer trust.
While the AWS FTR is essential, it is not without its challenges. The process can be time-consuming, requiring detailed documentation and extensive compliance checks. For many companies, this complexity can lead to delays in launching or scaling their solutions, impacting their overall go-to-market timeline.
Another significant challenge is the need for cross-departmental collaboration. Successfully completing an FTR requires input from various teams, including development, security, operations, and compliance. Coordinating these efforts can be daunting, especially for organizations without a streamlined process.
This is where Thoropass comes in. Thoropass offers a powerful solution to simplify the AWS FTR process by automating and organizing the necessary documentation, ensuring compliance, and facilitating team collaboration.
The AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR) is a crucial step for any AWS partner aiming to ensure the security, reliability, and operational excellence of their solutions. While the process can be complex and time-consuming, Thoropass simplifies the journey, enabling you to meet FTR requirements with ease and confidence.But FTR is just the beginning. As you pursue higher-level AWS competencies, such as Security, Migration, or DevOps, you’ll encounter additional requirements—including more detailed security questionnaires. Having completed the FTR through Thoropass significantly improves your ability to tackle these deeper competency assessments. Thoropass streamlines the process, making even the most complex security and compliance questionnaires more manageable.If you’re preparing for an AWS FTR or aiming for an advanced AWS competency, Thoropass is your trusted partner for success. Learn how we can help simplify compliance, accelerate your go-to-market strategy, and support your journey through AWS competencies.

[New York, November 28 2023] – CITSAP, Certified IT Security Assurance Professionals, a leading provider of cybersecurity services, has announced their partnership with compliance and audit solution Thoropass, and DevOps automation pioneer DuploCloud, to offer SOC 2 and HITRUST information security compliance services offering that is now available in AWS Marketplace, as part of the Global Security & Compliance Acceleration (GSCA) Program. The offering, formally announced at AWS re:Invent 2023 in Las Vegas, is available now to startups and other organizations seeking assistance with their compliance journey.
CITSAP and Thoropass’ SOC 2 compliance solution for early-stage startups leverage a holistic framework built around highly skilled professionals, streamlined processes, and use of the Thoropass automated compliance platform to ease the burden of meeting your SOC 2 or HITRUST compliance requirements in the most efficient and effective manner.
“This is a true shift-left compliance approach that presents a game-changing opportunity for early-stage startups, designed to fast-track their cybersecurity compliance journey, and transform their programs from zero to hero through our collaborative efforts,” says Tosin Ojo, founder and CEO of CITSAP.
CITSAP and Thoropass combine customer-centric approaches to servicing and automating interested parties’ compliance needs. While CITSAP provides subject matter experts who work with clients to identify their most pressing risks, Thoropass provides AI-infused automation technology with in-house auditors who can provide SOC 2 attestation and HITRUST assessment without leaving the platform.
Attaining SOC 2 for many startups can be both daunting as well as essential for startups and growing businesses. Likewise, for those involved in HealthTech-related industries, HITRUST is often an aspiration that is met with friction via resources and time. This partnership offered via AWS Marketplace – including an optional service with DevOps software provider DuploCloud –is a game changer for companies looking to get and stay compliant without the stress or confusion typically associated with the process.
Building a fully automated and secure cloud infrastructure requires many tools, APIs, services, and standards to be stitched together manually by DevOps engineers writing Infrastructure-as-Code. DuploCloud’s DevOps automation platform auto-generates 90% of the manual code based on built-in best practices, compliance standards, and cloud integrations. Deployments using DuploCloud can shave weeks off the Thoropass gap assessment phase as the proper security controls and compliance standards are provisioned correctly the first time.
Thoropass and DuploCloud are part of the Global Security & Compliance Acceleration (GSCA) Program and offer AWS customers a streamlined approach for their compliance needs. By harnessing the power of the AWS Marketplace, CITSAP and Thoropass continue to accelerate their partnership by providing industry-leading services and automation in a single place.
