The ISO 27001:2022 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 ISO 27001:2022 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. ISO 27001:2022 into C5 (Germany) lands at 57%, while C5 (Germany) into ISO 27001:2022 lands at 69.9%, 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 ISO 27001:2022 evidence buys you for C5 (Germany), the other asks the reverse.
69 of 121 C5 (Germany) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO 27001:2022. 52 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
A current inventory of information and associated assets with named owners is the asset register required
Grounded in iso-27001-2022::5.9 Inventory of information and other associated assets. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Approve hardware before it enters the production environment through a process that identifies, analyses and mitigates the risks its introduction creates, granting approval only after verifying that error handling, logging, encryption,...
Every one of the 69 evidenced controls and 52 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
65 of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for C5 (Germany). 28 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
C5 has top management adopt a security policy setting objectives, target level, core strategy and the security organisation.
Grounded in C5-OIS-02 Information Security Policy. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Govern acquisition, use, management and exit of cloud services against your security requirements.
Every one of the 65 evidenced controls and 28 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 97% in the header counts how many ISO 27001:2022 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.
