CCm: Cloud Control Matrix - Secure Cloud Management

A Cloud Control Matrix (CCm) is an organizational tool used to monitor and maintain the security, availability, and reliability of cloud-based services. It is a comprehensive framework that defines the policies, procedures, and controls necessary to ensure that cloud-based services are secure and compliant with applicable regulations. The CCm is typically composed of a set of policies and procedures that define the roles and responsibilities of all parties involved in the cloud services, including cloud service providers, customers, and other stakeholders. The CCm also outlines the security controls necessary to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the cloud services and data. Additionally, the CCm may include audit and compliance requirements, user access controls, and incident response plans. The CCm is designed to help organizations ensure that their cloud services are secure and compliant with applicable regulations.
