Coverage crosswalk

The FedRAMP High to C5 (Germany) crosswalk

The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which C5 (Germany) controls your existing FedRAMP High work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.

FedRAMP High into C5 (Germany)
Not published yet

This direction has not been through crosswalk review and sign off, so no coverage figure is published for it. Reporting an unreviewed number would be worse than reporting none. It can be built to order at the same price as a pair that is already on the shelf.

If the two frameworks turn out to have too little in common for a crosswalk to help you, we say so and refund it rather than send a number worth nothing.

29%

119 of 410 FedRAMP High controls are evidenced by work you have already done for C5 (Germany). 291 are genuine gaps.

Machine verified. Claude Code on the Max plan, judged in context, signed off 2026-08-19. 238 candidate mappings were examined and 6 were removed by a pass whose job was to argue against them.Mappings were judged by Claude Code rather than read line by line by a practitioner. Every claim shows its reasoning so you can check it. Ask and a practitioner will review this pair.

A sample of what the report says

Evidenced: AC-1 Policy and Procedures

C5 requires a documented role and rights concept and access management policy issued to those it binds.

Grounded in C5-IDM-01 Policy for user accounts and access rights. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.

Gap: AC-10 Concurrent Session Control

Limit concurrent sessions per account to FedRAMP-defined number (3 for privileged, 2 for non-privileged).

Every one of the 119 evidenced controls and 291 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 FedRAMP High controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many C5 (Germany) 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.
