SOC 2vsISO 27001:2022
See exactly how SOC 2 controls map to ISO 27001:2022. Pre-computed mappings, identified gaps, and coverage analysis.
A reviewed coverage crosswalk for this pair is available. See which ISO 27001:2022 controls you already evidence.
According to the TheArtOfService Compliance Knowledge Graph:
SOC 2 maps to ISO 27001:2022 with 98% coverage across 60 directly mapped controls. Analysis of 61 SOC 2 controls identifies 1 compliance gaps, primarily concentrated in CC - Common Criteria (Security).

The SOC 2 to ISO 27001:2022 crosswalk
The table above lists candidate mappings. A crosswalk answers the narrower question you are probably here for: which ISO 27001:2022 controls your existing SOC 2 work already satisfies, which are real gaps, and the reasoning behind every claim so you can check it. One pair, $299, one time.
Coverage does not run both ways. SOC 2 into ISO 27001:2022 lands at 48.4%, while ISO 27001:2022 into SOC 2 lands at 57.4%, on the same two control sets. That is not a rounding difference. It is the whole reason these are two separate reports: one asks what your SOC 2 evidence buys you for ISO 27001:2022, the other asks the reverse.
45 of 93 ISO 27001:2022 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for SOC 2. 48 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Policy deployment of control activities is the evidence an assessor wants for security policies.
Grounded in SOC2-CC5.3 COSO principle 12: Deploys control activities through policies and procedures. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
Define and enforce rules for how information and assets may be used and handled.
Every one of the 45 evidenced controls and 48 gaps in the report carries this much reasoning, so you can check the claim rather than take it on trust.
35 of 61 SOC 2 controls are evidenced by work you have already done for ISO 27001:2022. 26 are genuine gaps.
A sample of what the report says
Capacity management is how availability commitments are kept.
Grounded in iso-27001-2022::8.6 Capacity management. Confidence high, survived the refutation pass.
The board of directors demonstrates independence from management and exercises oversight of the development and performance of internal control
Every one of the 35 evidenced controls and 26 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 98% in the header counts how many SOC 2 controls carry at least one candidate mapping in the graph, before any review. The crosswalk percentage counts something stricter: how many ISO 27001:2022 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 SOC 2 and ISO 27001:2022?
SOC 2 has 61 controls across its framework, while ISO 27001:2022 covers 93 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 60 overlapping controls (98% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in CC - Common Criteria (Security), where 1 SOC 2 controls have no direct ISO 27001:2022 equivalent.
How many controls map between SOC 2 and ISO 27001:2022?
Of 61 total SOC 2 controls, 60 map directly to ISO 27001:2022 controls, representing 98% coverage. The remaining 1 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.
What are the compliance gaps when mapping SOC 2 to ISO 27001:2022?
1 SOC 2 controls have no direct equivalent in ISO 27001:2022. The highest concentration of gaps is in CC - Common Criteria (Security) 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 SOC 2 and ISO 27001:2022?
The domain with the highest gap count is CC - Common Criteria (Security) (1 gaps). Export the full domain-by-domain gap breakdown via the Professional tier to generate a prioritised remediation roadmap.
