ISO/IEC 27017 — Cloud Security Controls

Cloud-specific security controls that tell cloud buyers you speak their language.

Book a demo

ISO 27017 adds cloud-specific guidance to ISO 27001: shared-responsibility clarity, virtual environment separation, cloud service lifecycle controls. For cloud providers selling to security-mature buyers, it's the certification that says 'we've thought about the cloud parts specifically.'

What it adds over 27001

Seven cloud-only controls and cloud interpretations of the rest: who is responsible for what between provider and customer, isolation between tenants, administrator operations, and what happens to customer assets when the contract ends. It certifies alongside your ISO 27001 audit with modest incremental effort.

How Compriska helps

Compriska tracks the cloud control set alongside your core ISMS, reusing shared evidence and making the shared-responsibility answers ready for the questionnaires that always ask them.
