What are the key differences between ISO 27799 and NIST Privacy Framework 1.0?

ISO 27799 has 46 controls across its framework, while NIST Privacy Framework 1.0 covers 120 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 11 overlapping controls (24% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Operations, where 4 ISO 27799 controls have no direct NIST Privacy Framework 1.0 equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO 27799 and NIST Privacy Framework 1.0?

Of 46 total ISO 27799 controls, 11 map directly to NIST Privacy Framework 1.0 controls — representing 24% coverage. The remaining 35 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO 27799 to NIST Privacy Framework 1.0?

35 ISO 27799 controls have no direct equivalent in NIST Privacy Framework 1.0. The highest concentration of gaps is in Operations with 4 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 27799 and NIST Privacy Framework 1.0?

The domain with the highest gap count is Operations (4 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
