The ISO 27001:2022 to HIPAA Security Rule crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which HIPAA Security Rule 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 HIPAA Security Rule lands at 79.1%, while HIPAA Security Rule into ISO 27001:2022 lands at 50.5%, 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 ISO 27001:2022 evidence buys you for HIPAA Security Rule, the other asks the reverse.
53 of 67 HIPAA Security Rule controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO 27001:2022. 14 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
A disciplinary process is the sanction policy this specification requires.
Grounded in iso-27001-2022::6.4 Disciplinary process. 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.
47 of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for HIPAA Security Rule. 46 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.
Classify information by confidentiality, integrity, availability and interested-party requirements.
Every one of the 47 evidenced controls and 46 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.

Why this page shows two different percentages. The 77% 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 HIPAA Security Rule 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.

The frameworks diverge most significantly in Technological controls – ISO 27001:2022, where 12 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct HIPAA Security Rule equivalent.
How many controls map between ISO 27001:2022 and HIPAA Security Rule?
Of 93 total ISO 27001:2022 controls, 72 map directly to HIPAA Security Rule controls, representing 77% coverage. The remaining 28 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO 27001:2022 to HIPAA Security Rule?
28 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct equivalent in HIPAA Security Rule. The highest concentration of gaps is in Technological controls – ISO 27001:2022 with 12 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 ISO 27001:2022 and HIPAA Security Rule?
