What are the key differences between NIST SP 800-137 and ISO 27043?

NIST SP 800-137 has 51 controls across its framework, while ISO 27043 covers 52 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 18 overlapping controls (35% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Operational Process, where 8 NIST SP 800-137 controls have no direct ISO 27043 equivalent.

How many controls map between NIST SP 800-137 and ISO 27043?

Of 51 total NIST SP 800-137 controls, 18 map directly to ISO 27043 controls — representing 35% coverage. The remaining 33 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping NIST SP 800-137 to ISO 27043?

33 NIST SP 800-137 controls have no direct equivalent in ISO 27043. The highest concentration of gaps is in Operational Process with 8 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 NIST SP 800-137 and ISO 27043?

The domain with the highest gap count is Operational Process (8 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
