DoD Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide

Department of Defense (DoD)  Cloud Computing Security Requirements Guide (SRG). Version 1, Release 1. 12 January 2015 Developed by the
Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for the Department of Defense (DoD).

“Cloud computing technology and services provide the Department of Defense (DoD) with the opportunity to deploy an Enterprise Cloud Environment aligned with Federal Department-wide Information Technology (IT) strategies and efficiency initiatives, including federal data center consolidation. Cloud computing enables the Department to consolidate infrastructure, leverage commodity IT functions, and eliminate functional redundancies while improving continuity of operations. The overall success of these initiatives depends upon well executed security requirements, defined and understood by both DoD Components and industry. Consistent implementation and operation of these requirements assures mission execution, provides sensitive data protection, increases mission effectiveness, and ultimately results in the outcomes and operational efficiencies the DoD seeks.”
