Answer: Information security policy is related to a top management definition of what it wants to achieve with information security in a broader sense, providing the framework for managing the ISMS, while the cloud security policy narrows the focus, considering the definition of what it wants the ISMS to achieve with information security in cloud environments. In terms of implementation, you can have the Cloud Security Policy as a section in the Information Security Policy or as a completely separated document.
