ISO 27018 Certification
(Personally Identifiable Information)
The ISO 27018 is a cloud-focused standard for securing confidential client public data on the cloud. With GORICO, our AI-enabled platform, and Accorian’s expert team, organizations can streamline their journey to ISO 27018 Certification.
Why Do You Need An ISO 27018 Certification?
ISO/IEC 27018 certification verifies that an organization protects Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in public cloud environments through defined privacy and security controls. It helps organizations safeguard sensitive customer data, meet privacy expectations, and build trust with clients and partners using cloud services.
Importance of ISO 27018 Certification

ISO/IEC 27018 certification demonstrates a commitment to data privacy while establishing clear protocols for secure data handling, improving efficiency, and building trust with clients and partners.
Strengthens Privacy and Cloud Security
ISO/IEC 27018 provides controls to protect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) in the cloud while helping organizations assess and ensure strong security measures from cloud service providers.
Informed and Voluntary Consent
ISO/IEC 27018 requires organizations to obtain clear, informed consent for collecting and using personal data, while ensuring individuals can withdraw consent at any time.
