Customized Security and Risk Attachments in
Cloud Contracts Protect Against Critical Risks

New research report from Gartner, compliments of Vormetric

Data loss and privacy breaches are global concerns when organizations consider the cloud, but for many cloud users, regulatory compliance represents an even greater challenge.

While security and risk is a top concern when strategizing for cloud sourcing, it is often an afterthought in contract development — which leads to rushed activities that potentially challenge the necessary diligence. Organizations find it difficult to apply their risk and security concerns as a clause in their cloud services contracts, thereby lacking a structured risk identification and documentation approach.

In this paper, Gartner Analysts, Frank Ridder and Gayla Sullivan layout recommendations for a four-step process to develop risk and security attachments for cloud service contracts in an efficient and comprehensive way.
