ISO/IEC 27018 - Protection of PII in Public Cloud

Harnessing the Cloud with Confidence

The cloud revolutionizes business operations, offering unparalleled scalability, agility, and cost-efficiency. However, entrusting sensitive data to a cloud service provider (CSP) raises concerns about privacy and security. Glocert's ISO/IEC 27018 Certification Service empowers you to navigate the cloud landscape with confidence. This internationally recognized standard helps ensure your chosen CSP adheres to the highest privacy protection protocols for your Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
