What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 4 controls across 3 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

ISO 27002:2022 · 2 controls

  • 8.25 Secure development life cycle
  • 8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles

CIS Controls v8 · 1 control

  • CIS-16.1 Establish and Maintain a Secure Application Development Process

NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 · 1 control

  • NIST-CSF-PR.PS-06 Secure software development practices are integrated, and their performance is monitored throughout the software development life cycle

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
