What are the key differences between ISO 27017 and MITRE ATT&CK?

ISO 27017 has 37 controls across its framework, while MITRE ATT&CK covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 10 overlapping controls (27% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Cloud-specific, where 7 ISO 27017 controls have no direct MITRE ATT&CK equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO 27017 and MITRE ATT&CK?

Of 37 total ISO 27017 controls, 10 map directly to MITRE ATT&CK controls — representing 27% coverage. The remaining 27 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO 27017 to MITRE ATT&CK?

27 ISO 27017 controls have no direct equivalent in MITRE ATT&CK. The highest concentration of gaps is in Cloud-specific with 7 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 27017 and MITRE ATT&CK?

The domain with the highest gap count is Cloud-specific (7 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
