    Day 4: Consensus Assessment Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ) v3.1
    Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) would like to present the next version of the Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire (CAIQ) v3.1. The CAIQ offers an industry-accepted way to document what security controls exist in IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS services, providing security control transparency. It provides a set of Yes/No questions a cloud consumer and cloud auditor may wish to ask of a cloud provider to ascertain their compliance to the Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM). Therefore, it helps cloud customers to gauge the security posture of prospective cloud service providers and determine if their cloud services are suitably secure. CAIQ v3.1 represents a minor update to the previous CAIQ v3.0.1. In addition to improving the clarity and accuracy, it also supports better auditability of the CCM controls. For this new CAIQ version, CSA took into account the combined comprehensive feedback that was collected over the years from its partners, the industry and the CCM working group.
