Information System Security Management and Assessment Program (ISMAP)

The Information System Security Management and Assessment Program (ISMAP) is a Japanese government system for assessing the security of cloud service providers to participate in public sector projects. It is operated jointly by The National Center of Incident Readiness and Strategy for Cybersecurity (NISC), The National Strategy office of Information and Communications Technology, The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) as well as The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI).  The Information-technology Promotion Agency (IPA), an independent administrative agency, provides practical technical support for the system. 

Google Cloud was successfully assessed for ISMAP compliance and subsequently  registered as an ISMAP compliant Cloud Service Provider.  Our registration can be seen at the Information Technology Promotion Agency (IPA) website.
