CCM v4.0 Implementation Guidelines
CCM v4.0 Implementation Guidelines

CCM v4.0 Implementation Guidelines

Release Date: 06/03/2024

Working Group: Cloud Controls Matrix

This document will help you understand how to navigate through the Cloud Controls Matrix v4 to use it effectively and interpret and implement the CCM control specifications.  The document’s main goal is to support the implementation of CCM controls and provide guidance in the form of recommendations on how that can be properly achieved per each CCM control specification. 

The CCM Implementation guidelines are a collaborative product from volunteering subject matter experts within the CCM Working Group. It is based on the shared experiences of both cloud providers and cloud customers in implementing and securing cloud services when leveraging the CCM controls.

The guidelines are also available in a spreadsheet format, where they can be leveraged alongside the rest of the CCMv4 components.
