QuestionQ102

VerifiedCloud Auditing

Why should third-party audit and certification results be relied upon when analyzing and assessing cybersecurity risks in the cloud?

Independent audits and certifications provide evidence for assessing those controls and the risks associated with that limited control. Their scope and findings must still be evaluated, and customers remain responsible for their own controls. (cyber.gc.ca)
