FAQs
What is ISO 27018?
ISO/IEC 27018 is a cloud‑specific code of practice providing privacy controls for CSPs acting as PII processors. It supplements ISO 27001 and ISO 27002 to address cloud‑related privacy risks such as multi‑tenancy and subcontractor transparency.
Is ISO 27018 a certifiable standard?
No. ISO 27018 cannot be certified independently.
Organizations demonstrate compliance through ISO 27001 certification with ISO 27018 scope extension.
Does ISO 27001 accelerate ISO 27018 adoption?
Yes – ISO 27017 requires ISO 27001 as a prerequisite and integrates directly into the ISMS, making adoption significantly faster.
Is ISO 27018 aligned with GDPR?
Yes. ISO 27018 maps directly to GDPR Article 28 processor requirements, including purpose limitation, breach support, transparency, and sub processor disclosures.
How long does ISO 27018 adoption take?
Most organizations achieve readiness in 8-20 weeks if it’s implemented from scratch. If already ISO 27001 is implemented, then readiness can be achieved within few weeks.
Does ValueMentor support certification audits?
Yes – we support preparation for ISO 27001 extension audits, evidence readiness, and audit coordination.
