What are the key differences between ISO 27043 and OWASP SAMM?

ISO 27043 has 52 controls across its framework, while OWASP SAMM covers 5 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 18 overlapping controls (35% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Investigative, where 6 ISO 27043 controls have no direct OWASP SAMM equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO 27043 and OWASP SAMM?

Of 52 total ISO 27043 controls, 18 map directly to OWASP SAMM controls — representing 35% coverage. The remaining 34 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO 27043 to OWASP SAMM?

34 ISO 27043 controls have no direct equivalent in OWASP SAMM. The highest concentration of gaps is in Investigative with 6 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 27043 and OWASP SAMM?

The domain with the highest gap count is Investigative (6 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
