The CIS Controls v8 to CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) controls your existing CIS Controls v8 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
9 of 39 CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for CIS Controls v8. 30 are genuine gaps.

Documented role based access rights deliver the least privilege element named in the category.
Grounded in CIS-6.8 Define and Maintain Role-Based Access Control. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.

Every one of the 9 evidenced controls and 30 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
26 of 153 CIS Controls v8 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49). 127 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Systems operations requires inventory of authorised and unauthorised devices.
Grounded in CFTC-SS-4 Systems Operations Category. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.

Every one of the 26 evidenced controls and 127 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 34% in the header counts how many CIS Controls v8 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) 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.
