What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 16 controls across 11 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • NIST-CSF-DE.CM-01 Networks and network services are monitored to find potentially adverse events
  • NIST-CSF-DE.CM-03 Personnel activity and technology usage are monitored to find potentially adverse events
  • NIST-CSF-DE.CM-09 Computing hardware and software, runtime environments, and their data are monitored to find potentially adverse events
  • NIST-CSF-PR.PS-04 Log records are generated and made available for continuous monitoring
  • NIST-CSF-RS.AN-07 Incident data and metadata are collected, and their integrity and provenance are preserved

You are reading one control. How much of CIS Controls v8 have you already done?

CIS Controls v8 CIS-8.7 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of CIS Controls v8 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 102 of 153 CIS Controls v8 controls already carry evidence.

If you hold ISO 27001:202266.7% covered · 51 gapsIf you hold FedRAMP Moderate62.7% covered · 57 gapsIf you hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 557.5% covered · 65 gapsIf you hold NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.050.3% covered · 76 gapsIf you hold ISO 27002:202249.7% covered · 77 gapsIf you hold Azure Security Benchmark49% covered · 78 gaps

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 240 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
