What is ISO 27017 certification?

In conjunction with ISO 27001, ISO 27017 provides controls for cloud service providers and cloud service customers. The Code of Practice clarifies both parties’ roles and responsibilities to help to make cloud services safe and secure. This certification will bring them in line with the rest of the data included in a certified information management system. 

Achieving UKAS-accredited certification to ISO 27017 provides independent assurance to your existing and potential cloud service customers and other interested parties that you have the appropriate confidentiality, integrity and availability controls in place for your organisation’s current Information Security Management processes. It can also give you a vital edge over your competitors.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to implement an ISO 27017-compliant information security management system (ISMS)?

The time it takes to implement an ISO 27017-compliant ISMS can vary depending on the size and complexity of your organisation, but it typically takes between 4 to 6 months.

We already have high standards of information security, why do we need ISO 27017 certification?

ISO 27017 provides a framework for securing data and services in the cloud. For organisations with existing high standards of information security, the effort required to achieve ISO 27017 may be relatively low. The benefits of having a systematic, benchmarked approach to managing the security of cloud services will enhance protection from Cyber threats, meet regulatory compliance requirements, and possibly most significantly of all helps build customer trust by demonstrating a commitment to data security.

Can Teamwork IMS guarantee successful certification?

We have a 100% success rate guiding our clients through ISO 27017 certification, however, it’s important to note that the certification we support you through is carried by an entirely separate, accredited certification body and by its nature is not something we can ever guarantee. We believe that this gives you a level of compliance that is second to none.

How do you stay up to date with the latest ISO standards and best practices?

We stay up to date with the latest ISO standards and best practices by maintaining active involvement in industry associations and participating in ongoing training and education programs. We also regularly review updates and revisions to the standard to ensure our clients are always receiving the most current guidance and advice.

How do you help us prepare for ISO 27017 certification?

We can help you at every step of the way, firstly by conducting a gap analysis of your current cloud security practices, then by developing a customised implementation plan, providing training and support to your staff, and finally by helping you navigate the certification process.

We practice what we preach

For a consultancy team who routinely manage compliance programs for other organisations, progressing through our own certification process is always a valuable reminder of how the experience feels and we think that this contributes towards our efficient but sympathetic approach to consulting for others.
