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.

You are reading one control. How much of HIPAA Security Rule have you already done?

HIPAA Security Rule 164.308(a)(5)(ii)(D) is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of HIPAA Security Rule your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 53 of 67 HIPAA Security Rule controls already carry evidence.

If you hold ISO 27001:202279.1% covered · 14 gaps If you hold ISO 27002:202279.1% covered · 14 gaps If you hold FedRAMP Moderate77.6% covered · 15 gaps If you hold NIST SP 800-53 Rev 577.6% covered · 15 gaps If you hold C5 (Germany)76.1% covered · 16 gaps If you hold Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.167.2% covered · 22 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. 64 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
