ISO/IEC 27018 Information technology - Code of practice for protection of personally identifiable information (PII) in public clouds acting as PII processors

The cloud offers organizations and consumers a variety of benefits: cost savings, flexibility and mobile access to information top the list. It also raises concerns about data protection and privacy; particularly around personally identifiable information (PII). PII includes any piece of information that can identify a specific user. The more obvious examples include names and contact details or your mother’s maiden name. But ones people may not readily think of are medical records, IP addresses and banking statements.

Used with ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27018 has been published to allow Cloud Service Providers whose infrastructure is certified to the standard to tell their existing and potential customers that their data is safeguarded and won’t be used for any purposes for which they don’t specifically give consent.

What are the benefits of ISO/IEC 27018?

  • Inspires trust in your business – provides greater reassurance to your customers and stakeholders that personal data and information is protected.
  • Competitive advantage – stand out from your competitors by protecting personal information to the highest level.
  • Protects your brand protection – reduces the risk of adverse publicity due to data breaches.
  • Reduces risks – ensures that risks are identified and controls are in place to manage or reduce them.
  • Protects against fines – ensures that local regulations are complied with, reducing the risk of fines for data breaches.
  • Helps grow your business – provides common guidelines across different countries, making it easier to do business globally and gain access as a preferred supplier.

How our BSI verification works

The PAS 2060 standard specifies a four-stage process to demonstrate carbon neutrality. This involves:

  • Assessment of GHG emissions based on accurate measurement data
  • Reduction of emissions through a target-driven carbon management plan
  • Offsetting of excess emissions, often by purchasing carbon credits
  • Documentation and verification through qualifying explanatory statements and public disclosure.

 

Through independent BSI verification to PAS 2060, your business can demonstrate that it has met these requirements. You can show you are serious about sustainability, responding to the challenge of climate change and contributing to the UNSDGs, while enhancing your organization’s performance and resilience.
