Saudi ARAMCO CCC ( Cybersecurity Compliance Certificate) Services
Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest integrated oil and gas company, manages enormous volumes of highly sensitive data every day. To minimize Cyber risks, Saudi Aramco requires all vendors, contractors, and business partners to comply with strict cybersecurity protocols through the ARAMCO CCC (Cybersecurity Compliance Certification), ensuring that every third-party organization meets the company’s rigorous security standards.
The ARAMCO CCC focuses on evaluating and validating the cybersecurity posture of third-party vendors. It ensures that all partners implement proper governance, risk management, technical safeguards, and incident response processes to protect sensitive information and critical infrastructure. Achieving the CCC demonstrates that a business is fully compliant with Saudi Aramco’s cybersecurity requirements, enabling them to participate confidently in Aramco projects while maintaining the integrity and security of the extended supply chain.
If your organization wants to work with Saudi Aramco or its ecosystem, Cybersecurity Compliance Certification (CCC) is not optional.
It’s a gatekeeper requirement. Nour Solution helps organizations achieve ARAMCO CCC compliance through a structured, audit-ready, and risk-driven approach; so you pass the audit the first time.
Why ARAMCO CCC Compliance Is Important for Your Business
Saudi ARAMCO operates under one of the strictest cybersecurity governance frameworks in the world. Vendors and third parties are expected to meet Third-Party Cybersecurity Standard (TPCS) requirements without compromise. Failing CCC compliance can lead to:
- Vendor onboarding rejection
- Contract delays or cancellation
- Audit failures
- Improves Vendor Credibility
- Loss of trust and long-term business damage
Core Requirements of ARAMCO CCC (SACS-002)
The SACS-002 standard sets out a series of critical requirements that vendors must fulfill to achieve ARAMCO CCC (Cybersecurity Compliance Certification). Compliance ensures that third-party vendors maintain robust cybersecurity measures and do not introduce risks into Saudi Aramco’s operations.
1. Assessment of ICT Infrastructure:
2. Identifying Security Gaps:
3. Implementation of Best Practices:
4. Documentation and Reporting:
5. Certification Process:

Our ARAMCO CCC Compliance Approach
Comprehensive ARAMCO CCC services that protect you from cyber risks and certification failure. We follow a step-by-step, risk-based methodology aligned with Saudi Aramco’s TPCS framework and audit expectations.
Step 1: Readiness Assessment
We begin with a deep-dive gap assessment against ARAMCO CCC and TPCS controls. This evaluation provides a clear, honest readiness report—no sugarcoating. What we evaluate:
- Cybersecurity governance & leadership
- Policies, procedures, and documentation
- Network, system, and endpoint security
- Identity & access management
- Incident response capability
- Third-party risk handling
Step 2: Compliance Strategy
Based on identified gaps, we design a custom CCC compliance strategy tailored to your business size, contract scope with Aramco, IT environment, and risk exposure. This ensures no over-engineering and no under-compliance. Key focus areas:
- Your business size
- Your contract scope with Aramco
- Your IT environment
- Your risk exposure
Step 3: Risk Analysis
Saudi Aramco expects vendors to understand their risks—not guess them. We conduct a formal cyber risk assessment to document, justify, and trace every risk. This includes threat modeling, vulnerability analysis, risk scoring, and business impact assessment. Assessment includes:
- Threat modeling
- Vulnerability analysis
- Risk scoring (impact × likelihood)
- Business impact assessment
Step 4: Risk Treatment
Identified risks are converted into a documented Risk Treatment Plan, clearly showing mitigation decisions, control implementation steps, responsible owners, and target timelines. Auditors look for this, and we make sure it’s solid. Treatment plan covers:
- Risk mitigation decisions
- Control implementation steps
- Responsible owners
- Target timelines
Step 5: Policy Framework
Policies are the foundation of certification. We develop and align all required cybersecurity policies, making them TPCS-aligned, audit-ready, and practical for daily operations and business teams. Policies include:
- Information Security Policy
- Access Control & IAM
- Incident Response & Reporting
- Data Protection & Classification
- Backup, DR & Business Continuity
- Third-Party Security Policy
Step 6: Control Implementation
If technical gaps exist, we guide or assist with security control implementation. Our focus is on what Aramco expects, avoiding unnecessary tool overload while ensuring full compliance. Technical controls include:
- Firewalls & network segmentation
- Endpoint protection & EDR
- Log monitoring & SIEM
- Vulnerability scanning
- Secure access controls
Step 7: Internal Audit
Before the official audit, we conduct a mock internal audit to validate documentation, identify weak controls, prepare teams, and reduce the risk of non-conformities. This step alone saves weeks of rework. Audit activities include:
- Validate documentation & evidence
- Identify weak controls early
- Prepare teams for auditor questions
- Reduce risk of non-conformities
Step 8: Training & Audit Support
Human error is a top risk factor in CCC audits. We provide targeted security awareness training covering key risks, and also perform final compliance validation to ensure smooth certification with zero surprises. Training & support covers:
- Phishing & social engineering
- Secure password practices
- Incident escalation procedures
- Data handling responsibilities
- External audit coordination
- Evidence submission
- Certification review
- Post-audit actions
