What are the key differences between ISO 27001:2022 and NERC CIP?

ISO 27001:2022 has 106 controls across its framework, while NERC CIP covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 13 overlapping controls (10% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in A.5 Organizational Controls, where 33 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct NERC CIP equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO 27001:2022 and NERC CIP?

Of 106 total ISO 27001:2022 controls, 13 map directly to NERC CIP controls — representing 10% coverage. The remaining 105 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 NERC CIP?

105 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct equivalent in NERC CIP. The highest concentration of gaps is in A.5 Organizational Controls with 33 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 NERC CIP?
