What are the key differences between FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) and NIST Privacy Framework?

FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) has 49 controls across its framework, while NIST Privacy Framework covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 9 overlapping controls (18% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Inherent Risk Profile, where 5 FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) controls have no direct NIST Privacy Framework equivalent.

How many controls map between FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) and NIST Privacy Framework?

Of 49 total FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) controls, 9 map directly to NIST Privacy Framework controls — representing 18% coverage. The remaining 40 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) to NIST Privacy Framework?

40 FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Privacy Framework. The highest concentration of gaps is in Inherent Risk Profile 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 FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) and NIST Privacy Framework?

The domain with the highest gap count is Inherent Risk Profile (5 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
