The HIPAA Security Rule to ISO 27002:2022 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which ISO 27002:2022 controls your existing HIPAA Security Rule 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. HIPAA Security Rule into ISO 27002:2022 lands at 51.6%, while ISO 27002:2022 into HIPAA Security Rule lands at 79.1%, 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 HIPAA Security Rule evidence buys you for ISO 27002:2022, the other asks the reverse.
48 of 93 ISO 27002:2022 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for HIPAA Security Rule. 45 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
A managed policy hierarchy with ownership, versioning and review is the security policy set.
Grounded in 164.316(a) Policies and Procedures (Standard). Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Requires information to be classified according to the organisation's information security needs, judged on confidentiality, integrity and availability and on the requirements of relevant interested parties.
Every one of the 48 evidenced controls and 45 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
53 of 67 HIPAA Security Rule controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO 27002:2022. 14 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Topic specific security policies to prevent and correct violations are the same artefact.
Grounded in iso-27002-2022::5.1 Policies for information security. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Covered entities and business associates must ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all electronic protected health information (ePHI) they create, receive, maintain, or transmit; protect against reasonably anticipated...
Every one of the 53 evidenced controls and 14 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 99% in the header counts how many HIPAA Security Rule controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many ISO 27002:2022 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.
