NIST SP 800-218vsEU Cyber Resilience Act
See exactly how NIST SP 800-218 controls map to EU Cyber Resilience Act. Pre-computed mappings, identified gaps, and coverage analysis.
Need this as a report you can hand to an assessor? A coverage crosswalk for this pair can be built to order.
According to the TheArtOfService Compliance Knowledge Graph:
NIST SP 800-218 maps to EU Cyber Resilience Act with 26% coverage across 11 directly mapped controls. Analysis of 42 NIST SP 800-218 controls identifies 31 compliance gaps, primarily concentrated in Prepare the Organization.

A NIST SP 800-218 to EU Cyber Resilience Act crosswalk, built to order
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which EU Cyber Resilience Act controls your existing NIST SP 800-218 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
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.

- 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 26% in the header counts how many NIST SP 800-218 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many EU Cyber Resilience Act 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 800-218 and EU Cyber Resilience Act?
NIST SP 800-218 has 42 controls across its framework, while EU Cyber Resilience Act covers 164 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 11 overlapping controls (26% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Prepare the Organization, where 7 NIST SP 800-218 controls have no direct EU Cyber Resilience Act equivalent.
How many controls map between NIST SP 800-218 and EU Cyber Resilience Act?
Of 42 total NIST SP 800-218 controls, 11 map directly to EU Cyber Resilience Act controls, representing 26% coverage. The remaining 31 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping NIST SP 800-218 to EU Cyber Resilience Act?
31 NIST SP 800-218 controls have no direct equivalent in EU Cyber Resilience Act. The highest concentration of gaps is in Prepare the Organization with 7 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 800-218 and EU Cyber Resilience Act?
The domain with the highest gap count is Prepare the Organization (7 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
