CAIQ is an acronym for the Consensus Assessment Initiative Questionnaire. This questionnaire is a downloadable spreadsheet of yes or no questions that correspond to the controls of CSA’s Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM).
CSPs submit the CAIQ to the CSA STAR Registry, our cloud security assurance program, to earn STAR Level 1. This encourages due diligence on the part of the CSP and leads to a higher quality procurement experience.
Filling out the CAIQ and submitting it raises questions for some, so we are here to help. This webinar will feature CSA technical experts that will help you understand the CAIQ, walk you through completing it, and how upload it to the STAR Registry.
