What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 3 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.

ATO Digital Service Provider (DSP) Operational Security Framework · 1 control

  • SEC.EAR Encryption at rest of in-scope data, or the four compensating controls

CIS Controls v8 · 1 control

  • CIS-3.9 Encrypt Data on Removable Media

New Zealand Information Security Manual (NZISM) · 1 control

  • 17.1.53.C.01 17.1.53.C.01 Encryption for reduced handling needs uses approved algorithms

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.
