Full Service Description

ISO/IEC 27017 is the international standard for cloud security controls, providing additional implementation guidance to organizations certified or aligning with ISO/IEC 27001.

Sherlocked Security provides independent ISO/IEC 27017 Internal Audit services designed to uncover hidden cloud risks, validate control effectiveness, and ensure organizations meet both certification and regulatory expectations.

Our methodology is investigative, structured, and control-focused.
