Coverage crosswalk

The APRA CPS 234 to NIS2 Directive crosswalk

The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIS2 Directive controls your existing APRA CPS 234 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.

Coverage does not run both ways. APRA CPS 234 into NIS2 Directive lands at 35.7%, while NIS2 Directive into APRA CPS 234 lands at 75%, on the same two control sets. That is not a rounding difference. It is the whole reason these are two separate reports: one asks what your APRA CPS 234 evidence buys you for NIS2 Directive, the other asks the reverse.

APRA CPS 234 into NIS2 Directive
35.7%

10 of 28 NIS2 Directive controls are evidenced by work you have already done for APRA CPS 234. 18 are genuine gaps.

NIS2 Directive into APRA CPS 234
75%

18 of 24 APRA CPS 234 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIS2 Directive. 6 are genuine gaps.

  • Every evidenced control, with the reasoning behind it
  • Every gap, with what it requires
  • Its level of review stated plainly, not a bare number

Why this page shows two different percentages. The 100% in the header counts how many APRA CPS 234 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many NIS2 Directive controls are actually evidenced, after a pass that argued against each mapping and kept only what survived. They answer different questions and they are not meant to agree.

A crosswalk narrows the work. It does not replace an audit, and your assessor may take a different view on individual controls. Mappings between frameworks are judgements, not text printed in either standard, which is why every claim in the report shows its reasoning. Questions go to support@theartofservice.com.
