What are the key differences between DORA and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

DORA has 26 controls across its framework, while NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 106 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 11 overlapping controls (42% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in DORA Chapter V: ICT Third-Party Risk Management, where 4 DORA controls have no direct NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 equivalent.

How many controls map between DORA and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

Of 26 total DORA controls, 11 map directly to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls — representing 42% coverage. The remaining 15 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping DORA to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

15 DORA controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in DORA Chapter V: ICT Third-Party Risk Management with 4 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 DORA and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

The domain with the highest gap count is DORA Chapter V: ICT Third-Party Risk Management (4 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
