Understanding Aramco Cybersecurity Certification
Saudi Aramco Thirdparty Cybersecurity Certification
Saudi Aramco introduced two classes of cybersecurity certifications for their supply chain partners depending on the nature of work outsourced to them, or the classification of the company. One was the Cybersecurity Compliance Certification or CCC and the other was the Cybersecurity Compliance Certification Plus, or CCC+.
These certifications aim to mitigate cyber risk, protect from possible vulnerabilities and ensure a robust security posture for third parties, as this was a major source of threat for Saudi Aramco for several years.
-
The CCC must be obtained by companies providing services like general requirements, outsourced infrastructure, customized software, and cloud computing.
-
The validity of the certificate is two years from the date of issue, during which time the parties must stay in compliance to maintain validity
-
The SACS-002 defines the standards and controls third parties must fulfil to be compliant – 24 common, and 87 specific requirements.
-
Identification is the first part of the standard: asset categorization, setting cybersecurity policies, risk evaluation through penetration testing, and managing risk through detection and remediation.
-
Protection through controlling access via passwords, badges, etc., setting processes to secure information and apps, disaster recovery planning, and defining protection of important systems
-
The CCC must be obtained by companies providing services like general requirements, outsourced infrastructure, customized software, and cloud computing.
-
Response –incident management policy, capability of response, and strategy to mitigate vulnerabilities.

Core Requirements of SACS-002
The SACS-002 standard includes several critical requirements that vendors must meet to qualify as compliant:
Assessment of ICT Infrastructure
Vendors are required to conduct a thorough assessment of their Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure. This involves identifying all assets, systems, and networks that could potentially be exposed to cyber threats. The assessment should highlight any vulnerabilities or weaknesses that could be exploited by malicious actors
Identifying Security Gaps
Following the ICT assessment, vendors must identify any glaring security gaps within their infrastructure. These could include outdated software, unpatched systems, weak authentication protocols, or insufficient encryption measures. The identification process must be meticulous, ensuring that no potential vulnerability is overlooked
Implementation of Best Practices
Once security gaps are identified, vendors must take immediate action to address and rectify these issues. The remediation efforts should align with industry best practices and the specific guidelines outlined in the SACS-002 standard. This might involve upgrading systems, enhancing encryption, implementing multi-factor authentication, and other critical security measures
Documentation and Reporting:
After implementing the necessary security measures, vendors are required to compile a detailed report documenting their compliance efforts. This report should include evidence of the actions taken, such as system logs, security audits, and other relevant documentation. The goal is to provide Saudi Aramco with a clear and comprehensive overview of the vendor’s cybersecurity posture
