What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 18 controls across 7 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/IEC 42001:2023 · 9 controls

  • 4.3 Determining the scope of the AI management system
  • 7.5.2 Creating and updating documented information
  • 8.3 AI risk treatment
  • A.6 AI system life cycle
  • A.6.1.2 Objectives for responsible development of AI system
  • A.6.2.6 AI system operation and monitoring
  • A.8.5 Information for interested parties
  • A.9.3 Objectives for responsible use of AI system
  • A.9.4 Intended use of the AI system

SOC 2 · 3 controls

  • SOC2-CC2.2 CC2.2 Internal communication of objectives and control responsibilities (COSO principle 14)
  • SOC2-CC3.1 CC3.1 Objectives specified clearly enough to assess risk (COSO principle 6)
  • SOC2-CC3.4 CC3.4 Identifying and assessing significant changes (COSO principle 9)
  • NIST-CSF-GV.OC-01 The organizational mission is understood and informs cybersecurity risk management
  • NIST-CSF-GV.OC-05 Outcomes, capabilities, and services that the organization depends on are understood and communicated

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.

Other controls in PL - Planning

You are reading one control. How much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 have you already done?

NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 NIST800-PL-7 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 163 of 1014 NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls already carry evidence.

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. 342 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
