Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil and gas company, deals with highly sensitive information. To protect this data, Aramco has created strict cybersecurity rules that every business partner must follow. One important rule is the Saudi Aramco Third-Party Cybersecurity Standard (SACS-002). This standard ensures that any company working with Aramco has strong cybersecurity systems in place. Businesses must check their IT setup, fix any problems, and follow the steps outlined in SACS-002.
After making the required changes, companies submit a report showing proof of their security measures. If everything meets Aramco’s requirements, they receive the Aramco Cybersecurity Compliance Certificate (CCC).
Whether you're an existing vendor or a new partner, this certificate is mandatory to work with Aramco. It not only helps you meet Aramco’s rules but also protects your company from cyber threats and builds a strong business relationship.
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+.
The goal of these certifications is to reduce cyber risks, address security weaknesses, and ensure strong protection for third-party vendors. This step was taken to tackle cybersecurity threats, which had been a significant challenge for Saudi Aramco in the past.
