Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents

Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 covers 62.2% of ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents

23 of the 37 controls in ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1. 14 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 ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents your Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 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.

68 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.

Recovering Data and System Availability3 of 3 evidenced
Preventing Malicious Insiders1 of 1 evidenced
Limiting the Extent of Cyber Security Incidents8 of 10 evidenced, 2 to do
Detecting Cyber Security Incidents and Responding3 of 6 evidenced, 3 to do
Preventing Malware Delivery and Execution8 of 17 evidenced, 9 to do

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.

CCM-UEM-02ASD37-01argued against and upheld
Application control (Essential)

A maintained list of permitted applications and sources for endpoints is application control.

CCM-TVM-03ASD37-02argued against and upheld
Patch applications (Essential)

Defined scheduled and emergency remediation routes chosen by risk deliver rapid patching.

CCM-IVS-04ASD37-09argued against and upheld
OS generic exploit mitigation (Excellent)

Hardening hosts and guests to a technically enforced baseline is where exploit mitigations are set.

CCM-AIS-02ASD37-10argued against and upheld
Server application hardening (Very Good)

Minimum security requirements each application class must satisfy before release is server application hardening.

CCM-IVS-04ASD37-11argued against and upheld
Operating system hardening (Very Good)

Hardening operating systems and control plane to a documented baseline is this strategy.

CCM-UEM-09ASD37-12argued against and upheld
Antivirus software with heuristics (Very Good)

Anti-malware configured to detect and actively block rather than report is this control.

CCM-HRS-11ASD37-15argued against and upheld
User education (Limited)

An awareness programme for all employees refreshed on a cycle is user education.

CCM-UEM-09ASD37-16argued against and upheld
Antivirus software with signatures (Limited)

Anti-malware deployed on managed endpoints identifies known malicious code.

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.
