ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question
A cloud service provider is beginning a program to achieve ISO/IEC 27001 certification for its multi-tenant IaaS platform. You are asked to lead the implementation of the information security management system (ISMS). To comply with the standard and establish a solid foundation for the project, which action should you carry out first before selecting or deploying any security controls?
Hold a management review meeting to approve the draft Statement of Applicability (SoA).
Perform an internal audit against ISO/IEC 27001 clauses and Annex A controls to identify gaps.
Select and implement the applicable Annex A and ISO/IEC 27002 technical controls for the cloud platform.
Document the ISMS scope, boundaries, and the needs and expectations of interested parties.
ISO/IEC 27001 instructs organizations to start ISMS implementation by defining the context of the organization (clause 4.1), determining the needs and expectations of interested parties (clause 4.2), and documenting the scope and boundaries of the ISMS (clause 4.3). Completing these steps first ensures that later activities-risk assessment, the Statement of Applicability, control selection, audits, and management reviews-are all performed against a clearly agreed-upon scope. Skipping this initial scoping work can lead to misalignment with certification requirements and costly re-work.
