CNS 17788

CNS 17788 is a Chinese National Standard (CNS) for "Information technology — Security techniques — Code of practice for information security and personally identifiable information protection for cloud services." It integrates international standards ISO/IEC 27017 (cloud security controls) and ISO/IEC 27018 (PII protection in public clouds), providing a specific security and privacy framework for both cloud providers and customers.

As cloud adoption accelerates, risks of data breaches and non-compliance are rising. Publicly traded companies must adhere to regulations governing internal controls, and regulators like the FSC require industries such as finance and healthcare to strengthen cloud outsourcing risk management. Implementing CNS 17788 is crucial for meeting regulatory and supply chain demands, demonstrating security commitment to clients, and mitigating operational risks.

CNS 17788 directly corresponds to and integrates two key international standards: ISO/IEC 27017 (Code of practice for information security controls for cloud services) and ISO/IEC 27018 (Code of practice for protection of PII in public clouds). It also serves as an extension to ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security Management Systems) for the cloud environment and can be seamlessly integrated with it.
