The FedRAMP Moderate to DORA crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which DORA 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 DORA lands at 42.3%, while DORA into FedRAMP Moderate lands at 11.5%, 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 DORA, the other asks the reverse.
11 of 26 DORA controls are evidenced by work you have already done for FedRAMP Moderate. 15 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Reviewing and analysing audit records at least weekly is a detection process with a fixed cadence.
Grounded in AU-6 Audit Record Review, Analysis, and Reporting. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Financial entities shall have crisis communication plans enabling responsible disclosure of major ICT-related incidents or vulnerabilities to clients, counterparts and the public as appropriate, and designate communication policies for...
Every one of the 11 evidenced controls and 15 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
37 of 323 FedRAMP Moderate controls are evidenced by work you have already done for DORA. 286 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Access management is a named protection the entity must implement and maintain.
Grounded in DORA-Art.9 Protection and prevention. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Develop and disseminate access control policy and procedures; review at least annually (FedRAMP parameter); update following defined events.
Every one of the 37 evidenced controls and 286 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 24% 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 DORA 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.
