Frequently asked questions
FAQs
The CCC requires third parties to perform a self-assessment for compliance with the controls outlined in SACS-002 and have their compliance assessment package verified remotely by an authorized audit firm. This requirement applies to third parties that do not fall into the company’s classifications. In contrast, the CCC+ mandates an on-site evaluation of the third party by one of the authorized firms to assess compliance with the specified controls. Third parties categorized as Network Connectivity or Critical Data Processor will need to obtain the CCC+.
