ISO/IEC 27018 — protecting personally identifiable information in the cloud
Originally published by ISO. The Trivanta editorial team adds a Mauritian-operator perspective and links you back to the original article on iso.org.
ISO/IEC 27018 sets out additional controls and guidance for processing PII in public cloud environments, often paired with ISO 27701 for end-to-end privacy assurance.
Trivanta perspective
ISO standards do not live in a vacuum — they ripple through national regulators, certification bodies, supply chains and ultimately into how Mauritian organisations buy software, train people and pass audits. Our editorial framing for ISO/IEC 27018 — protecting personally identifiable information in the cloud focuses on three things:
- What changes for a Mauritian operator. Where the article touches obligations that exist locally (DPA 2017, FIAMLA, OSHA 2005, MFRS, the Food Act), we flag the practical operating impact.
- Which Trivanta service applies. ISO certification roadmaps, cybersecurity engagements, software builds or training programmes — we point you to the right one rather than republishing the whole article.
- What stays unchanged. Most ISO developments are evolutionary. We mark whether you need to act now, plan a transition, or simply note the direction of travel.
