ISO’s New Cloud Privacy Standard Helps Small Businesses

In the modern workplace, the cloud is integral to how you do your job. Your email, your customer information, your accounting – it all relies on the cloud.

But for most small companies, choosing a cloud service provider (CSP) can be a challenge. With limited information available, it can be difficult to compare services and pick the right one for your business.

Enter ISO 27018, the first international standard around cloud privacy. This voluntary standard for CSPs fosters transparency about privacy practices and helps businesses choose a cloud provider.

As CSPs around the world begin joining the standard, we expect to see increased trust and satisfaction as companies find the right cloud provider for their needs.
