Cloud customers and security teams sent it
The cloud-vendor questionnaire, answered from your own documents.
The CAIQ (Consensus Assessments Initiative Questionnaire) is the cloud industry's standard security questionnaire. If you sell software, sooner or later someone sends it.
What this actually is
Published by the Cloud Security Alliance, the CAIQ asks a few hundred yes/no questions mapped to cloud security controls. Buyers use it to compare vendors without scheduling a dozen calls.
What happens if you wing it
A CAIQ full of unexplained “yes” answers reads as noise to a security reviewer; a CAIQ with cited, honest answers — including a few “not yet, here's the plan” — reads as credible. Credibility is what gets you through review.
How Vouchra answers it
From your own documents. With receipts.
Vouchra drafts each answer from your policies with citations, and distinguishes what you control from what your cloud provider controls — inherited controls are attributed, not claimed.
Low-confidence answers queue for your review; nothing auto-sends.
Gaps surface as roadmap items with concrete playbooks, so each CAIQ you complete is stronger than the last.
Questions
Before you ask
We run on AWS/Azure — do their certifications count for us?
Partly, and the distinction matters. Physical security and infrastructure controls are inherited from your provider; your application, access, and data-handling controls are yours. Vouchra's attribution engine answers each question from the right party's documents, which is exactly what reviewers want to see.
