The ISO/IEC 42001:2023 to NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) controls your existing ISO/IEC 42001:2023 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
Coverage does not run both ways. ISO/IEC 42001:2023 into NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) lands at 47.2%, while NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) into ISO/IEC 42001:2023 lands at 78.9%, on the same two control sets. That is not a rounding difference. It is the whole reason these are two separate reports: one asks what your ISO/IEC 42001:2023 evidence buys you for NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0), the other asks the reverse.
34 of 72 NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO/IEC 42001:2023. 38 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
A documented AI policy aligned to strategic direction is the integration into organisational policy.
Grounded in iso-iec-42001-2023::A.2.2 AI policy. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Legal and regulatory requirements involving AI are understood, managed, and documented. The organisation identifies which AI-specific and AI-adjacent legal duties bind each system, records how each is discharged, and keeps that record...
Every one of the 34 evidenced controls and 38 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
30 of 38 ISO/IEC 42001:2023 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0). 8 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Contract terms addressing data rights and liability for AI components allocate responsibility across parties.
Grounded in AIRMF-GV-6.1 Policies and procedures are in place that address AI risks associated with third-party entities, including risks of infringement of a third party's intellectual property or other rights. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
The AI policy shall be aligned with other organizational policies (privacy, security, quality, ethics, HR).
Every one of the 30 evidenced controls and 8 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
- Every evidenced control, with the reasoning behind it
- Every gap, with what it requires
- Its level of review stated plainly, not a bare number
Why this page shows two different percentages. The 100% in the header counts how many ISO/IEC 42001:2023 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) controls are actually evidenced, after a pass that argued against each mapping and kept only what survived. They answer different questions and they are not meant to agree.
A crosswalk narrows the work. It does not replace an audit, and your assessor may take a different view on individual controls. Mappings between frameworks are judgements, not text printed in either standard, which is why every claim in the report shows its reasoning. Questions go to support@theartofservice.com.
