1.What is the distinction between CCC and CCC+ ?
The CCC requires the third party to complete a compliance self-assessment

scoped controls specified in SACS-002, and to have the compliance
assessment
package remotely verified by one of the authorized audit firms. This
will be required for
the remaining third parties who do not fit into the company's
classifications. According
to SACS-002, the CCC+ will need an onsite evaluation of the third party
against the
scope controls by one of the authorized firms. For third parties classed
as Network
Connectivity or Critical Data Processor, the CCC+ will be required.
