Coverage crosswalk

The NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 to CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) crosswalk

The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) controls your existing NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.

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.

38 of 300 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49). 262 are genuine gaps.

Machine verified. Claude Code on the Max plan, judged in context, signed off 2026-08-19. 92 candidate mappings were examined and 0 were removed by a pass whose job was to argue against them.Mappings were judged by Claude Code rather than read line by line by a practitioner. Every claim shows its reasoning so you can check it. Ask and a practitioner will review this pair.

A sample of what the report says

Evidenced: NIST800-AC-6 Least privilege

Expressly requires access to systems and data on a least privilege basis.

Grounded in CFTC-SS-3 Information Security Category. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.

Gap: NIST800-AC-1 Access control policy and procedures

Requires an access control policy and supporting procedures to be written, approved, issued to the personnel who must apply them, owned by a named official, and reviewed and reissued on a defined frequency and after defined trigger events,...

Every one of the 38 evidenced controls and 262 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 30% in the header counts how many NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) 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 800-53 Rev 5 and CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49)?

NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 has 300 controls across its framework, while CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) covers 39 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 91 overlapping controls (30% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in SC - System and Communications Protection, where 43 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls have no direct CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) equivalent.

How many controls map between NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 and CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49)?

Of 300 total NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls, 91 map directly to CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) controls, representing 30% coverage. The remaining 229 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 to CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49)?

229 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls have no direct equivalent in CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49). The highest concentration of gaps is in SC - System and Communications Protection with 43 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 800-53 Rev 5 and CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49)?

The domain with the highest gap count is SC - System and Communications Protection (43 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
