ISO/IEC 27017 – Internal Audit Services
By Sherlocked Security – Qualified & Independent Auditors
Full Service Description
ISO/IEC 27017 provides cloud-specific information security controls and implementation guidance for organizations that design, operate, or use cloud services. It extends ISO/IEC 27001 by addressing risks unique to cloud environments, including shared responsibility, multi-tenancy, and cloud service governance.
Sherlocked Security offers independent ISO/IEC 27017 Internal Audit services through the Make Audit Easy portal, helping organizations evaluate the effectiveness of their cloud security controls and maintain continuous compliance.
Our audit methodology is risk-driven and evidence-based, focusing on how cloud security controls are actually implemented and operated across people, processes, and technology. We assess both management controls and technical safeguards, ensuring alignment with cloud service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and applicable shared responsibility obligations.
The audit outcomes provide management with clear, actionable insights into compliance gaps, security weaknesses, and improvement priorities—enabling confident preparation for certification, surveillance audits, and customer cloud security assessments.
