STA-01: SSRM Policy and Procedures
SSRM Policy and Procedures
STA-01: Are policies and procedures implementing the shared security responsibility model (SSRM) within the organization established, documented, approved, communicated, applied, evaluated, and maintained?

Cloud service implementations involve a shared security responsibility model (SSRM) between the CSP and the CSC. Although specific details vary from service to service (e.g., depending on the cloud service model and the particular implementation), both CSPs and CSCs should have organizational policies and procedures that delineate how the SSRM should be documented, implemented, managed, communicated, enforced, and audited.


Not applicable - A “N/A” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is out of scope of the assessment. The “SSRM control ownership” column is to be left blank (e.g., greyed out), and optionally the CSP may explain why it is the case (“CSP Implementation Description”).
No - A “No” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is not implemented, while in scope of the assessment. The CSP has to assign the implementation responsibility of the control to the relevant party under column “SSRM control ownership”, and optionally elaborate on the “why” (has not been implemented), and “what” has to be done for its implementation by that party.
Yes - A “Yes” answer indicates that the portion of the control in question is implemented. The CSP indicates the responsible and accountable parties (SSRM control ownership), and optionally elaborates on the implementation “how-to” per relevant party CSP and/or CSC.
CSP-owned - The CSP is entirely responsible and accountable for the CCM control implementation.
CSC-owned - The Cloud Service Customer (CSC) is entirely responsible and accountable for the CCM control implementation.
Third-party - The third-party CSP in the supply chain (e.g., an IaaS provider) is responsible for CCM control implementation, while the CSP is fully accountable.
Shared CSP and CSC - Both the CSP and CSC share CCM control implementation responsibility and accountability.
Shared CSP and third party - Any CCM control implementation responsibility is shared between CSP and the third party, but the CSP remains fully accountable.
Description

Establish, document, approve, communicate, apply, evaluate and maintain policies and procedures for the application of the Shared Security Responsibility Model (SSRM) within the organization. Review and update the policies and procedures at least annually.
