What are the key differences between APPI and SOC 2?

APPI has 30 controls across its framework, while SOC 2 covers 61 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 25 overlapping controls (83% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in APPI: Anonymized Personal Information (Articles 43 to 46), where 2 APPI controls have no direct SOC 2 equivalent.

How many controls map between APPI and SOC 2?

Of 30 total APPI controls, 25 map directly to SOC 2 controls — representing 83% coverage. The remaining 5 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping APPI to SOC 2?

5 APPI controls have no direct equivalent in SOC 2. The highest concentration of gaps is in APPI: Anonymized Personal Information (Articles 43 to 46) with 2 unmapped controls. These gaps represent areas where additional controls, policies, or documentation must be created to achieve compliance with both frameworks.

Which control domains have the most gaps between APPI and SOC 2?

The domain with the highest gap count is APPI: Anonymized Personal Information (Articles 43 to 46) (2 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
