Recently, I have been involved in cloud security discussions in different occasion. As Christmas is coming, I think it is worth to repeat a point I made in 2005 via securityfocus.com mail list and still it is valid. It regarding BS7799 and its controls.
“Without a Christmas tree, you can still have decorations but it would be a mess. With a Christmas tree, the decorations fit into a big picture and you can see where needs what.”
