Cloud Controls Matrix
CSA Research crowd-sources the knowledge and expertise of security experts and helps address the challenges and needs they’ve experienced, or seen others experience, within the cybersecurity field. Each publication is vendor-neutral and follows the peer review process outlined in the CSA Research Lifecycle. We recommend getting started by reading the following documents.
Cloud Controls Matrix v4 and CAIQ v4
The Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) is a cybersecurity control framework and is considered the de-facto standard for cloud security and privacy. Version 4 of the Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) has been combined with the Consensus Assessment Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ). Version 4 introduces changes in the structure of the framework with a new domain dedicated to Log and Monitoring (LOG), and a significant increase in requirements. Additional features are: ensured coverage of requirements deriving from new cloud technologies, new controls and security responsibility matrix, improved auditability of the controls, and enhanced interoperability and compatibility.
CCM v4 Implementation Guidelines
This document will help you understand how to navigate through the Cloud Controls Matrix v4 to use it effectively and how to interpret and implement the CCM control specifications. Given a certain CCM control specification, the document will help explain what should be done to effectively implement and monitor the control, which specific best practices should be followed, what the specific regulations of reference are, and what the differences are when implementing a control from the SaaS-PaaS-IaaS perspective.
CCM Translation in 10 Languages
CSA in the context of an agreement with OneTrust has translated the Cloud Control Matrix (CCM) v3.0.1 in 10 languages in order to facilitate their easier adoption by organizations in the corresponding countries. Provided translations are in: Spanish (ES), German (DE), French (FR), Italian (IT), Japanese (JA), Danish (DA), Dutch (NL), Portuguese (PT), Romanian (RO) and Swedish (SV).
