What are the key differences between ISO 27005 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

ISO 27005 has 20 controls across its framework, while NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 103 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 6 overlapping controls (30% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in ISO 27005: Risk Treatment, where 5 ISO 27005 controls have no direct NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO 27005 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

Of 20 total ISO 27005 controls, 6 map directly to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls — representing 30% coverage. The remaining 14 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO 27005 to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

14 ISO 27005 controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in ISO 27005: Risk Treatment 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 27005 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

The domain with the highest gap count is ISO 27005: Risk Treatment (5 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
