Coverage crosswalk

A NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements to O-RAN WG11 Security Specification crosswalk, built to order

The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which O-RAN WG11 Security Specification controls your existing NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.

NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements into O-RAN WG11 Security Specification
Not published yet

This direction has not been through crosswalk review and sign off, so no coverage figure is published for it. Reporting an unreviewed number would be worse than reporting none. It can be built to order at the same price as a pair that is already on the shelf.

If the two frameworks turn out to have too little in common for a crosswalk to help you, we say so and refund it rather than send a number worth nothing.

  • Its level of review stated plainly, not a bare number

Why this page shows two different percentages. The 34% in the header counts how many NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many O-RAN WG11 Security Specification 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.

What are the key differences between NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements and O-RAN WG11 Security Specification?

NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements has 35 controls across its framework, while O-RAN WG11 Security Specification covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 12 overlapping controls (34% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in System Protection and Communications, where 9 NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements controls have no direct O-RAN WG11 Security Specification equivalent.

How many controls map between NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements and O-RAN WG11 Security Specification?

Of 35 total NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements controls, 12 map directly to O-RAN WG11 Security Specification controls, representing 34% coverage. The remaining 23 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements to O-RAN WG11 Security Specification?

23 NIST SP 800-171A Rev 3 - Assessing CUI Security Requirements controls have no direct equivalent in O-RAN WG11 Security Specification. The highest concentration of gaps is in System Protection and Communications with 9 unmapped controls. These gaps represent areas where additional controls, policies, or documentation must be created to achieve compliance with both frameworks.
