Azure Security Benchmark covers 16.7% of ISO 27701:2019
18 of the 108 controls in ISO 27701:2019 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Azure Security Benchmark. 90 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 ISO 27701:2019 your Azure Security Benchmark 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.
72 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.
Detecting and disabling insecure services and protocols is a required network control.
Edge firewall inspecting inbound and outbound traffic with documented rules is a network control.
Private endpoints and firewall rules are the security in network services requirement.
Virtual network, subnet and security group segmentation is segregation in networks.
Threat modelling of application and pipeline is the security requirements analysis and specification.
Enforced TLS 1.2 or higher is exactly the requirement to encrypt personal data over untrusted networks.
Web application firewall in front of applications and APIs protects application service transactions.
Backup and recovery strategy with recovery time and point objectives is the continuity planning.
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.

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.
