Publication Peer Review

The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) in collaboration with the CCM WG is pleased to announce the release of the Final Draft of the Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) version 4.1 for open peer review. We invite cloud security professionals and organizations to participate and provide valuable feedback on the proposed updates.

The CCM is a foundational cybersecurity framework that helps organizations implement and assess cloud security controls. As cloud environments evolve rapidly, version 4.1 builds upon the current CCM 4.0 by refining existing controls and introducing new ones to address emerging threats and technologies. This update aims to enhance the applicability, clarity, and effectiveness of the controls to better support cloud security risk management.

Cloud security is a shared responsibility, and the CCM serves as a vital tool for organizations of all sizes and sectors. Your expert insights will help us:

Your expertise is critical to making CCM v4.1 a robust and widely accepted security standard. We look forward to your constructive contributions and thank you in advance for your participation.
