The FedRAMP Moderate 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 Moderate work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
Coverage does not run both ways. FedRAMP Moderate into C5 (Germany) lands at 71.1%, while C5 (Germany) into FedRAMP Moderate lands at 37.2%, on the same two control sets. That is not a rounding difference. It is the whole reason these are two separate reports: one asks what your FedRAMP Moderate evidence buys you for C5 (Germany), the other asks the reverse.
86 of 121 C5 (Germany) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for FedRAMP Moderate. 35 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Component inventory kept accurate and current with the attributes needed to manage the assets, which is what the criterion requires
Grounded in CM-8 System Component Inventory. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Document, communicate and issue acceptable use and safe handling instructions spanning approval for acquisition through disposal, classification and labelling, secure configuration, software versions and patching, unsupported software,...
Every one of the 86 evidenced controls and 35 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
120 of 323 FedRAMP Moderate controls are evidenced by work you have already done for C5 (Germany). 203 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
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.
Prevent further access by initiating device lock after 15 minutes inactivity (FedRAMP) or upon user request.
Every one of the 120 evidenced controls and 203 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 67% in the header counts how many FedRAMP Moderate 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.
