Abstract: Since the 1970s, sustainability has not been thought of using our natural resources with industrialization as if they were never going to end. However, in addition to the level of welfare of the industry, the damage to the environment is too numerous to be ignored and solutions should be applied. After the Stockholm environment conference in 1972, environmental awareness began. In 1992, the environmental conference held in Rio de Janeiro and the principle of sustainable development was adopted by the world and environmental management systems were developed.ISO 14001 environmental management system is a series of standards implemented to control and minimize environmental impacts of enterprises.In this study, the evaluation of environmental risks within the scope of ISO 14001 and the use of cloud technology as a solution proposal will be taken into consideration by selecting a specified industrial sector.
