ISO/IEC 27017:2015 | Security Controls for Cloud Services

An information security framework called ISO/IEC 27017 is designed for businesses using (or considering adopting) cloud services. Cloud service providers must adhere to this standard because it provides a uniform and all-encompassing approach to information security, making their cloud service clients (and others) safer.

The ISO/IEC 27000 set of standards, which offer best-practice recommendations for information security management, includes ISO 27017. The extra cloud security controls suggested by this standard, which was created from ISO/IEC 27002, are not completely stated in that standard.

Detailed instructions for implementing extra controls and pertinent measures listed in ISO/IEC 27002, including guidelines for using cloud services. Moreover, additional security measures are applicable.
