The C5 (Germany) to SOC 2 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which SOC 2 controls your existing C5 (Germany) 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. C5 (Germany) into SOC 2 lands at 54.1%, while SOC 2 into C5 (Germany) lands at 29.8%, 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 C5 (Germany) evidence buys you for SOC 2, the other asks the reverse.
33 of 61 SOC 2 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for C5 (Germany). 28 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
C5 gives the customer the means to monitor and steer the system resources allocated to it.
Grounded in C5-OPS-03 Capacity Management - Controlling of Resources. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Demonstrates a commitment to integrity and ethical values
Every one of the 33 evidenced controls and 28 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
36 of 121 C5 (Germany) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for SOC 2. 85 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Protections are removed only once the ability to read or recover the data has been diminished, which is the erasure limb of decommissioning
Grounded in SOC2-CC6.5 Discontinues logical and physical protections over physical assets only after the ability to read or recover data and software from those assets has been diminished and is no longer required to meet the entity's. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Maintain inventory procedures that keep asset records complete, accurate, valid and consistent throughout the asset lifecycle, whether populated automatically or by the responsible owners, hold the attributes the risk procedure needs...
Every one of the 36 evidenced controls and 85 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
- 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 98% in the header counts how many C5 (Germany) controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many SOC 2 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.

The frameworks diverge most significantly in C5: Product Safety and Security, where 2 C5 (Germany) controls have no direct SOC 2 equivalent.
How many controls map between C5 (Germany) and SOC 2?
Of 121 total C5 (Germany) controls, 119 map directly to SOC 2 controls, representing 98% coverage. The remaining 2 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping C5 (Germany) to SOC 2?
2 C5 (Germany) controls have no direct equivalent in SOC 2. The highest concentration of gaps is in C5: Product Safety and Security 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 C5 (Germany) and SOC 2?
The domain with the highest gap count is C5: Product Safety and Security (2 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
