Compare your current storage configurations, access control lists, and encryption policies against the requirements outlined in the standard. Identify areas where data is transmitted in the clear or where key management practices are deficient. Step 3: Implement Technical Controls Deploy the necessary technical remediations, such as: Enforcing AES-256 encryption across all storage arrays.
: The current iteration expands the scope significantly. It addresses modern cloud storage architectures, hybrid deployment models, object storage, and the mitigation of sophisticated cyber threats like ransomware and data extortion. iso iec 27040 pdf
: Ensuring that even if physical drives are stolen, the data remains unreadable. Vendor Management
Utilizing Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs) or software-based volume encryption to ensure that data remains unreadable if physical media is compromised. [Assess & Analyze Risks] ➔ [Design & Architect]
: Guidance on managing cryptographic keys and implementing encryption for data at rest and data in transit across storage networks. Cloud Storage
Storage Area Networks (SAN) and Network-Attached Storage (NAS) protocols—such as iSCSI, Fibre Channel, and NFS—often lack built-in security features. If left unencrypted, data traffic traveling across these networks can be intercepted via packet sniffing. 4. Ransomware and Data Modification : The current iteration expands the scope significantly
SAN environments deal with block-level storage and require high-speed performance. Security strategies here focus on hardware-level isolation, switch port security, and protocol-specific authentication (such as DH-CHAP for iSCSI and Fibre Channel). 3. Cloud and Virtualized Storage
: To configure SAN, NAS, and cloud storage systems according to international best practices.
