The ISO/IEC 27000 family of standards provides organizations with a framework for securing information assets. Many enterprises and organizations in regulated industries utilize ISO 27001 standards and ISO requirements around data management and information security management system (ISMS). Enterprises often look for vendors to have implemented ISO 27001 standards or comparable cybersecurity framework.
Under the cloud shared responsibility model, Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides attestations for several ISO 27000 Standards. However, cloud customers are not automatically ISO certified by association, and must implement additional security controls. It is up to the cloud customer to implement administrative and technical security controls including security configuration around encryption, audit logging, backup and disaster recovery (DR).
