CAIQ

Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ) is a self-assessment questionnaire  that correspond to CSA’s cybersecurity controls framework for cloud computing: Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM). An IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS cloud service provider can use the CAIQ to document their security, increasing security transparency for potential customers, who can then determine if the CSP’s cloud services are secure enough for their purposes and data protection.
