What are the key differences between ISO/IEC 27011:2024 and NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment)?

ISO/IEC 27011:2024 has 44 controls across its framework, while NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment) covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 13 overlapping controls (25% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Technological, where 10 ISO/IEC 27011:2024 controls have no direct NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment) equivalent.

How many controls map between ISO/IEC 27011:2024 and NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment)?

Of 44 total ISO/IEC 27011:2024 controls, 13 map directly to NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment) controls — representing 25% coverage. The remaining 37 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping ISO/IEC 27011:2024 to NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment)?

37 ISO/IEC 27011:2024 controls have no direct equivalent in NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment). The highest concentration of gaps is in Technological with 10 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/IEC 27011:2024 and NIST SP 800-115 (Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment)?
