Introduction
The guidance contained within this document is aligned with and complements the guidance given in
ISO/IEC 27002.
Specifically, this document provides guidance supporting the implementation of information security
controls for cloud service customers (CSCs) and cloud service providers (CSPs). Some guidance is intended
for CSCs who implement the controls and other guidance is for CSPs to support the implementation of those
controls. The determination of the appropriate information security controls and the extent of the utilization
of the guidance provided depends on the results of the relevant risk assessment and the existence of any
legal, regulatory, contractual, or other cloud-computing specific information security requirements.

4 Guidance for using this document
4.1 Relation between this document and ISO/IEC 27002:2022
This document provides:
— additional guidance for relevant controls specified in ISO/IEC 27002:2022;
— additional controls with guidance that specifically relate to cloud services.
This document refers to the attributes, controls, purposes, guidance and other information from
ISO/IEC 27002:2022, Clauses 5 to 8. Owing to the general applicability of ISO/IEC 27002:2022, many of the
controls, guidance and other information apply to both the general and cloud computing contexts of an
organization. For example, ISO/IEC 27002:2022, 5.3, “Segregation of duties” provides a control that can be
applied whether the organization is acting as a CSP or not. Additionally, a CSC can derive requirements for
segregation of duties in the cloud computing environment from the same control, e.g. a CSC segregating the
CSCs' cloud service administrators from other CSUs.
This document also provides attributes, controls, purposes, guidance and other information that are specific
to cloud services and are intended to mitigate the risks that accompany the technical and operational
features of cloud services (see 5.38, 5.39, 8.35 and 8.36). Annex A provides the mappings between the set of
1)
controls of this document and the previous edition (ISO/IEC 27017:2015 ).
The CSCs and the CSPs can refer to ISO/IEC 27002:2022 and this document to identify guidance on general
and cloud service specific controls as necessary. This process can be done by performing an information
security risk assessment and risk treatment in the organizational and business context where cloud services
are used or provided (see 4.3.3).

4.2 Structure of this document
This document follows the structure used in ISO/IEC 27002:2022 for the description of controls.
This document adapts the information security controls included in ISO/IEC 27002:2022, Clauses 5 to 8 to
better fit cloud computing. As in ISO/IEC 27002:2022, the categorization of controls given in Clauses 5 to 8 is
referred to as themes and the attributes of each control identified in ISO/IEC 27002:2022 also apply.
When controls specified in ISO/IEC 27002:2022 are applicable to both the CSCs and the CSP without a need
for any additional information, only a reference to ISO/IEC 27002:2022 is provided.
In addition to the controls of ISO/IEC 27002:2022, cloud service extended controls are prefixed with “CLD”
(CLouD service extended controls). When a control specified in ISO/IEC 27002:2022 needs additional
guidance that is specific to cloud services related to the control, it is given as “guidance for cloud services”.
The guidance is provided in one of the following two types:
— Type 1 (shown in Table 1), used when there is separate guidance for the CSC and the CSP;
— Type 2 (shown in Table 2), used when the guidance is the same for both the CSC and the CSP.

4.3 Cloud computing specific concepts
4.3.1 Supplier relationships in cloud services
ISO/IEC 27002:2022, 5.19 to 5.22 provide controls, the purpose of each control, guidance and other
information for managing information security in supplier relationships. The provision and use of cloud
services is similar to a supplier relationship, where the CSC is an acquirer and the CSP is a supplier. Therefore,
ISO/IEC 27002:2022, 5.19 to 5.22 apply to CSCs and CSPs.
CSCs and CSPs can also form a supply chain. For example, a CSP provides a cloud service of infrastructure
capabilities type. On top of this service, another CSP can provide a cloud service of application capabilities
type. In this case, the second CSP is a CSC with respect to the first, and a CSP with respect to the CSC using
its service. In this scenario, the organization has both CSC and CSP roles. Every organization should consider
which controls are applicable to it in its roles as the CSC and the CSP. This example illustrates the case where
this document applies to an organization both as a CSC and as a CSP. Since CSCs and CSPs form a supply
chain through the provision and use of the cloud service, ISO/IEC 27002:2022, 5.21 applies as it covers the
management of information security in the ICT supply chain.
The ISO/IEC 27036 series provides detailed guidance on the information security in supplier relationships
to the acquirer and supplier of products and services. ISO/IEC 27036-4 deals directly with information
security of cloud services in supplier relationships. ISO/IEC 27036-4 is also applicable to CSCs as acquirers
and CSPs as suppliers.
4.3.2 Relationships between CSCs and CSPs
In the cloud computing environment, CSC data are stored, transmitted and processed by a cloud service.
Therefore, a CSC's business processes depend upon the information security of the cloud service. Without
sufficient control over the cloud service, it can be necessary for the CSC to take extra precautions with its
own information security practices.

© ISO/IEC 2026 – All rights reserved
ISO/IEC 27017:2026(en)
Before entering into a supplier relationship, the CSC is expected to select a cloud service, taking into account
the possible gaps between the CSC's information security requirements and the information security
capabilities offered by the service. Once a cloud service is selected, the CSC should manage the use of the
cloud service in such a way as to meet its own information security requirements. In this relationship,
collaborative effort between the CSC and the CSP for the use and provision of the cloud service is necessary
for the CSC to achieve its objectives for information security management. It includes shared roles and
responsibilities between the CSC and the CSP. The CSP should provide the information and technical support
that are necessary to meet the CSC's information security requirements. When the information security
controls provided by the CSP are pre-set and cannot be changed by the CSC, it is possible that the CSC
implements additional controls of its own to mitigate risks. More information on allocation of the shared
roles and responsibilities can be found in 5.38.
It is important to understand that there are different cloud deployment models that are used in cloud
computing environments. Some of the cloud deployment models include:
— private cloud;
— public cloud;
— multi-cloud;
— federated cloud;
— hybrid cloud;
— hybrid multi-cloud;
— inter-cloud.
There are three fundamental approaches that can be taken in these different cloud deployment models.
— The CSC controls and manages the cloud services that are being delivered by each of the CSPs including
their orchestration into a cloud solution (e.g. multi-cloud).
— One CSP combines cloud services from multiple CSPs with varying degrees of orchestration, control and
management activities (e.g. inter-cloud).
— Multiple CSPs form a partnership through out-of-band collaboration and share their resources to
create cloud services (e.g. federated cloud which uses a cloud service federation management system to
orchestrate access to the CSPs resources).
It is important to note that these approaches are not mutually exclusive and it is possible to combine them.
Further explanation of these cloud deployment models can be found in ISO/IEC 5140.
