What are the key differences between IEEE 1686 and NIS2 Directive?

IEEE 1686 has 24 controls across its framework, while NIS2 Directive covers 24 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 16 overlapping controls (67% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in IEEE 1686: Asset Identification & Governance, where 3 IEEE 1686 controls have no direct NIS2 Directive equivalent.

How many controls map between IEEE 1686 and NIS2 Directive?

Of 24 total IEEE 1686 controls, 16 map directly to NIS2 Directive controls — representing 67% coverage. The remaining 8 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping IEEE 1686 to NIS2 Directive?

8 IEEE 1686 controls have no direct equivalent in NIS2 Directive. The highest concentration of gaps is in IEEE 1686: Asset Identification & Governance with 3 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 IEEE 1686 and NIS2 Directive?

The domain with the highest gap count is IEEE 1686: Asset Identification & Governance (3 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
