ISO 27001:2022vsNIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0
See exactly how ISO 27001:2022 controls map to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. Pre-computed mappings, identified gaps, and coverage analysis.
A reviewed coverage crosswalk for this pair is available. See which NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls you already evidence.
According to the TheArtOfService Compliance Knowledge Graph:
ISO 27001:2022 maps to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 with 97% coverage across 90 directly mapped controls. Analysis of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls identifies 10 compliance gaps, primarily concentrated in Clause 9 – ISO 27001:2022.

The ISO 27001:2022 to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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.
73 of 106 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO 27001:2022. 33 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Monitoring activities analyses events for signs of adverse activity.
Grounded in iso-27001-2022::8.16 Monitoring activities. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
The estimated impact and scope of adverse events are understood
Every one of the 73 evidenced controls and 33 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
59 of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. 34 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
An established cybersecurity policy set based on context is the same policy requirement.
Grounded in NIST-CSF-GV.PO-01 Policy for managing cybersecurity risks is established based on organizational context, cybersecurity strategy, and priorities and is communicated and enforced. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Define and enforce rules for how information and assets may be used and handled.
Every one of the 59 evidenced controls and 34 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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.

What are the key differences between ISO 27001:2022 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
ISO 27001:2022 has 93 controls across its framework, while NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 106 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 90 overlapping controls (97% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Clause 9 – ISO 27001:2022, where 5 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 equivalent.
How many controls map between ISO 27001:2022 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
Of 93 total ISO 27001:2022 controls, 90 map directly to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls, representing 97% coverage. The remaining 10 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
10 ISO 27001:2022 controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in Clause 9 – ISO 27001:2022 with 5 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?
The domain with the highest gap count is Clause 9 – ISO 27001:2022 (5 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
