FAQ
ISO 27018 is a set of controls for protecting PII in public cloud environments. ISO 27001 covers overall information security. ISO 27018 builds on it with privacy-specific requirements like PII handling, subprocessor transparency, and breach notification.
ISO 27018 applies to any company that processes PII in the cloud, including B2B SaaS companies. If you handle customer data in a public cloud, it helps you show strong privacy practices and build trust with buyers.
ISO 27018 is voluntary—no law requires it. But many enterprise buyers, especially in Europe, expect it as proof of strong cloud privacy practices. It helps you stand out and build trust with customers.
Yes. ISO 27018 is assessed as an extension of ISO 27001 (i.e. it’s not a separate certification). Vanta supports both, so your auditor can review them together in a single audit.
Yes. Vanta connects you with vetted and accredited auditors who can assess both ISO 27001 and ISO 27018. This helps you avoid delays and move through certification faster.
