Cloud computing

ISO/IEC 18384-1:2016 establishes vocabulary, guidelines, and general technical principles underlying service oriented architecture (SOA), including principles relating to functional design, performance, development, deployment, and management.

ISO/IEC 17789:2014 specifies the cloud computing reference architecture (CCRA). The reference architecture includes the cloud computing roles, cloud computing activities, and the cloud computing functional components and their relationships.

ISO/IEC 17788:2014 provides an overview of cloud computing along with a set of terms and definitions. It is a terminology foundation for cloud computing standards.

ISO/IEC 17788:2014 is applicable to all types of organizations (e.g., commercial enterprises, government agencies, not-for-profit organizations).

ISO/IEC 19944:2017

- extends the existing cloud computing vocabulary and reference architecture in ISO/IEC 17788 and ISO/IEC 17789 to describe an ecosystem involving devices using cloud services,

- describes the various types of data flowing within the devices and cloud computing ecosystem,

- describes the impact of connected devices on the data that flow within the cloud computing ecosystem,

- describes flows of data between cloud services, cloud service customers and cloud service users,

- provides foundational concepts, including a data taxonomy, and

- identifies the categories of data that flow across the cloud service customer devices and cloud services.

ISO/IEC 19944:2017 is applicable primarily to cloud service providers, cloud service customers and cloud service users, but also to any person or organization involved in legal, policy, technical or other implications of data flows between devices and cloud services.

This document provides guidance on the use of international standards as a tool in the development of those policies that govern or regulate cloud service providers (CSPs) and cloud services, and those policies and practices that govern the use of cloud services in organisations.

This includes material that explains cloud computing concepts and the role of cloud computing international standards in formulating policies and practices.

The document makes references to various international standards. Where possible, these standards are ISO/IEC standards. Where a suitable ISO/IEC standard is not available, references are made to documents published by other WTO-registered standards bodies.

As explained in the WTO Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), standards play a vital role in supporting technical regulations and conformity assessment, however this document does not cover matters of trade.

This document describes a framework of trust for the processing of multi-sourced data that includes data use obligations and controls, data provenance, chain of custody, security and immutable proof of compliance as elements of the framework.

This Recommendation describes the framework of risk management in cloud computing, including risk assessment, risk treatment, risk acceptance, risk communication, risk monitoring and review, etc. It focuses on the risk management processes of CSP.

- Overview of risk management in cloud computing;

- Framework of risk management in cloud computing.
