The Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 to NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1 controls your existing Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
71 of 191 NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1. 120 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Access standards flowed by policy into every supply chain provider agreement.
Grounded in CCM-STA-12 Supply Chain Service Agreement Compliance. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Governs remote access used by suppliers and service providers, which is the ordinary way supply chain access actually happens.
Every one of the 71 evidenced controls and 120 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
72 of 197 Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1. 125 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Independent control assessment rather than acceptance of a stated claim.
Grounded in 161R1-CA-2 Control Assessments. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Maintain approved audit and assurance policies, procedures and standards that are documented, communicated to the staff they bind, applied in practice, and reassessed at least once a year.
Every one of the 72 evidenced controls and 125 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 76% in the header counts how many Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1 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.
