The NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 to C5 (Germany) crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which C5 (Germany) controls your existing NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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. NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 into C5 (Germany) lands at 36.4%, while C5 (Germany) into NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 lands at 67%, 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 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 evidence buys you for C5 (Germany), the other asks the reverse.
44 of 121 C5 (Germany) controls are evidenced by work you have already done for NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. 77 are genuine gaps.
71 of 106 NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for C5 (Germany). 35 are genuine gaps.
- 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 94% in the header counts how many NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many C5 (Germany) 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.
