What are the key differences between DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) and PCI DSS v4.0?

DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) has 32 controls across its framework, while PCI DSS v4.0 covers 63 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 20 overlapping controls (62% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in General Purpose Operating Systems, where 5 DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) controls have no direct PCI DSS v4.0 equivalent.

How many controls map between DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) and PCI DSS v4.0?

Of 32 total DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) controls, 20 map directly to PCI DSS v4.0 controls — representing 62% coverage. The remaining 12 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) to PCI DSS v4.0?

12 DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) controls have no direct equivalent in PCI DSS v4.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in General Purpose Operating Systems 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 DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) and PCI DSS v4.0?
