Australia My Health Records Act 2012 covers 7.3% of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5
22 of the 300 controls in NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Australia My Health Records Act 2012. 278 are genuine gaps. Every claim below was judged against both control sets and then argued against; the ones that did not survive are published further down with the reason each failed.
This number is directional. It says how much of NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 your Australia My Health Records Act 2012 evidence satisfies. The reverse pair is a different number, often very different, because a security standard has enormous depth for access control and almost none for lawful basis or data subject rights.
60 candidate mappings were examined and 0 were removed. Signed off 2026-08-19, review level machine verified. Mappings were judged by Claude Code rather than read line by line by a practitioner. Every claim shows its reasoning so you can check it. Ask and a practitioner will review this pair.
Where the gaps are
Coverage is never evenly spread. A source standard usually satisfies one part of a target almost completely and barely touches another, and which part is which is the thing worth knowing before you plan the work.
Theme level, not control level, deliberately. The per-control list of what is evidenced and what is a gap is the report itself, so publishing it here would be publishing the thing being sold.
Claims that held
A sample. Each one names the control whose evidence does the work, the control it satisfies, and why.
Mandates a written policy addressing how security and access to the system are managed.
User accounts must be created, suspended and deactivated under a defined process.
Consumer access controls define which documents an authorised user may be shown.
Access controls must ensure only authorised employees reach the system.
Authorised employees must be trained before access and on an ongoing basis.
Training is scoped to the obligations and secure use attaching to the authorised user role.
Access to and activity in the system must be logged.
Logs must be monitored to detect and investigate unauthorised access.
Claims that did not hold
Nothing proposed for this pair was rejected in review. That is unusual and worth knowing rather than hiding: it means the candidate set was small and every candidate held.
The full report
Everything above is a sample. The report is every evidenced control and every gap, with the reasoning and the source document behind each one, in a form you can hand to an assessor. $299, emailed immediately.
