As the cloud computing industry matures and accelerates well beyond serving as just a utility for storage and servers, there is an expansion in service offerings, ranging from Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) to Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Cloud has come of age and is now an essential catalyst of a variety of strategic capabilities. From a risk perspective, cloud’s complexity remains challenging – there is some gradient across the different service models, but the deployment model is where risks vary widely.

  • Is the cloud technology adopted achieving the expected return on investment?
  • Does your organization have the appropriate security to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data and services hosted in the cloud?
  • Does your organization conduct due diligence with respect to the cloud service providers?
