X.1601 ——10. Framework methodology Step 1: Use clauses 7 and 8 to identify security threats and security implications of the challenges in the cloud computing service under study. Step 2: Use clause 9 to identify the needed high level security capabilities based on identified threats and challenges which could mitigate security threats and address security challenges. Step 3: Derive security controls, policies and procedures which could provide needed security abilities based on identified security capabilities.

X.cc-control Geneva, Switzerland, September Scope This International Standard provides guidelines supporting the implementation of Information security controls for cloud service providers and cloud service customers of cloud computing services. Selection of appropriate controls and the application of the implementation guidance provided will depend on a risk assessment as well as any legal, contractual, or regulatory requirements. ISO/IEC provides information security risk management guidance, including advice on risk assessment, risk treatment, risk acceptance, risk communication, risk monitoring and risk review.

X.sfcse Geneva, Switzerland, September Scope This Recommendation provides a generic functional description for secure service oriented Software as a Service (SaaS) application environment that is independent of network types, operating system, middleware, vendor specific products or solutions. In addition, this Recommendation is independent of any service or scenarios specific model (e.g., web services, Parlay X or REST), assumptions or solutions. This Recommendation aim to describe a structured approach for defining, designing, and implementing secure and manageable service oriented capabilities in telecommunication cloud computing environment.

X.goscc Geneva, Switzerland, September Scope This Recommendation provides guideline of operational security for cloud computing, which includes guidance of SLA and daily security maintenance for cloud computing. The target audiences of this recommendation are cloud service providers, such as traditional telecom operators, ISPs and ICPs.

X.idmcc Geneva, Switzerland, September Scope This Recommendation provides use-case and requirements analysis giving consideration to the existing industry efforts. This Recommendation concentrates on the requirements for providing IdM as a Service (IdMaaS) in cloud computing. The use of non-cloud IdM in cloud computing, while common in industry, is out of scope for this Recommendation.
