APRA CPS 234vsNIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0
See exactly how APRA CPS 234 controls map to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. Pre-computed mappings, identified gaps, and coverage analysis.
A reviewed coverage crosswalk for this pair is available. See which NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls you already evidence.
According to the TheArtOfService Compliance Knowledge Graph:
APRA CPS 234 maps to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 with 50% coverage across 24 directly mapped controls. Analysis of 48 APRA CPS 234 controls identifies 24 compliance gaps, primarily concentrated in Testing control effectiveness (paras 27 to 31) – APRA CPS 234.

The APRA CPS 234 to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 lands at 23.6%, while NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 into APRA CPS 234 lands at 39.6%, 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, the other asks the reverse.
25 of 106 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for APRA CPS 234. 81 are genuine gaps.
19 of 48 APRA CPS 234 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. 29 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 50% 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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.

What are the key differences between APRA CPS 234 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
APRA CPS 234 has 48 controls across its framework, while NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 106 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 24 overlapping controls (50% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Testing control effectiveness (paras 27 to 31) – APRA CPS 234, where 5 APRA CPS 234 controls have no direct NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 equivalent.
How many controls map between APRA CPS 234 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
Of 48 total APRA CPS 234 controls, 24 map directly to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls, representing 50% coverage. The remaining 24 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping APRA CPS 234 to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
24 APRA CPS 234 controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in Testing control effectiveness (paras 27 to 31) – APRA CPS 234 with 5 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 APRA CPS 234 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
The domain with the highest gap count is Testing control effectiveness (paras 27 to 31) – APRA CPS 234 (5 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
