Answers a G-Cloud supplier's questions about security certifications and compliance evidence: which certificates each G-Cloud 15 lot requires (Cyber Essentials Plus and ISO 9001/20000-1/27001 for Lots 1a/1b, Cyber Essentials for 2a, 2b and 3), ISO 27001, SOC 2, CSA STAR, PCI DSS, ISO 28000, DSPT, the Carbon Reduction Plan, the NCSC 14 cloud security principles, post-quantum cryptography, the Software Security Code of Practice, UK GDPR, BPSS, SC and DV clearances, and what evidence a submission…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Cloud Security & Compliance

Conversational knowledge about security certifications, NCSC principles, compliance frameworks, evidence requirements, and UK government security standards relevant to G-Cloud service providers.

## Purpose

Provide instant answers to common questions about security and compliance requirements for G-Cloud without requiring document generation. This covers certifications, frameworks, clearances, and evidence guidance.

## When to Use

Activate when users ask about:

- Whether they need a specific certification (ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2, etc.)
- What the NCSC 14 cloud security principles are
- UK GDPR requirements for cloud services
- Security clearance levels and when they apply
- What evidence to provide (and what NOT to provide)
- Certification costs, timelines, and renewal cycles
- NHS DSPT requirements
- AI governance and the AI Playbook

## Quick Reference: Key Certifications

| Certification | G-Cloud Importance | Validity | Typical Cost |
|---------------|-------------------|----------|-------------|
| ISO 27001 | High — expected by most buyers | 3 years (annual surveillance) | £5K–£50K+ |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tractorjuice/arckit-claude/Cloud Security & Compliance@sha256:adb75ff57529c333

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.36c6529, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
