PCI DSS 4.0vsISO 27701:2019
See exactly how PCI DSS 4.0 controls map to ISO 27701:2019. Pre-computed mappings, identified gaps, and coverage analysis.
A reviewed coverage crosswalk for this pair is available. See which ISO 27701:2019 controls you already evidence.
According to the TheArtOfService Compliance Knowledge Graph:
PCI DSS 4.0 maps to ISO 27701:2019 with 74% coverage across 207 directly mapped controls. Analysis of 280 PCI DSS 4.0 controls identifies 153 compliance gaps, primarily concentrated in Appendix A3: Designated Entities Supplemental Validation (DESV) – PCI DSS 4.0.

The PCI DSS 4.0 to ISO 27701:2019 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which ISO 27701:2019 controls your existing PCI DSS 4.0 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
32 of 108 ISO 27701:2019 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for PCI DSS 4.0. 76 are genuine gaps.
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 74% in the header counts how many PCI DSS 4.0 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many ISO 27701:2019 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 PCI DSS 4.0 and ISO 27701:2019?
PCI DSS 4.0 has 280 controls across its framework, while ISO 27701:2019 covers 108 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 207 overlapping controls (74% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Appendix A3: Designated Entities Supplemental Validation (DESV) – PCI DSS 4.0, where 26 PCI DSS 4.0 controls have no direct ISO 27701:2019 equivalent.
How many controls map between PCI DSS 4.0 and ISO 27701:2019?
Of 280 total PCI DSS 4.0 controls, 207 map directly to ISO 27701:2019 controls, representing 74% coverage. The remaining 153 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping PCI DSS 4.0 to ISO 27701:2019?
153 PCI DSS 4.0 controls have no direct equivalent in ISO 27701:2019. The highest concentration of gaps is in Appendix A3: Designated Entities Supplemental Validation (DESV) – PCI DSS 4.0 with 26 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 PCI DSS 4.0 and ISO 27701:2019?
The domain with the highest gap count is Appendix A3: Designated Entities Supplemental Validation (DESV) – PCI DSS 4.0 (26 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
