What are the key differences between NIST SP 800-88 and OWASP MASVS?

NIST SP 800-88 has 8 controls across its framework, while OWASP MASVS covers 8 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 5 overlapping controls (62% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Third-Party Providers, where 1 NIST SP 800-88 controls have no direct OWASP MASVS equivalent.

How many controls map between NIST SP 800-88 and OWASP MASVS?

Of 8 total NIST SP 800-88 controls, 5 map directly to OWASP MASVS 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 800-88 to OWASP MASVS?

3 NIST SP 800-88 controls have no direct equivalent in OWASP MASVS. The highest concentration of gaps is in Third-Party Providers 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 800-88 and OWASP MASVS?

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