FAQs
Is ISO 27017 a certifiable standard?
ISO 27017 is a code of practice and is not certifiable on its own.
Organizations can only be certified to ISO 27001, with ISO 27017 added as an extension to the certificate.
How easy is it to adapt ISO 27017 from ISO 27001?
Relatively easy. ISO 27017:
- adds 7 cloud‑specific controls
- provides enhanced guidance for ~37 existing ISO 27002 controls
- clarifies cloud shared responsibility models
Most organizations complete the extension quickly because the ISMS already exists.
Who needs ISO 27017?
Cloud service providers, SaaS companies, managed service providers, and organizations heavily using cloud platforms-especially those undergoing customer/vendor assurance.
How does ISO 27017 reduce cloud vendor risk?
It defines cloud responsibilities clearly, helping organizations assess CSPs more effectively and align expectations in cloud contracts and due diligence.
