What are the key differences between NIST SP 800-61 and OWASP ASVS?

NIST SP 800-61 has 8 controls across its framework, while OWASP ASVS covers 49 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 5 overlapping controls (62% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Cloud, Third-Party, Threat Intel, where 1 NIST SP 800-61 controls have no direct OWASP ASVS equivalent.

How many controls map between NIST SP 800-61 and OWASP ASVS?

Of 8 total NIST SP 800-61 controls, 5 map directly to OWASP ASVS controls — representing 62% coverage. The remaining 3 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping NIST SP 800-61 to OWASP ASVS?

3 NIST SP 800-61 controls have no direct equivalent in OWASP ASVS. The highest concentration of gaps is in Cloud, Third-Party, Threat Intel with 1 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 800-61 and OWASP ASVS?

The domain with the highest gap count is Cloud, Third-Party, Threat Intel (1 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
