Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1NIST SP 800-171 Rev 3

Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 covers 64.9% of NIST SP 800-171 Rev 3

63 of the 97 controls in NIST SP 800-171 Rev 3 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1. 34 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.

What this leaves you to do

NIST SP 800-171 Rev 3 has 97 controls. Holding Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 already evidences 63 of them, so the work in front of you is 34 controls, not 97, which is 35% of the standard rather than all of it.

That is the whole claim. We do not know your hourly rate, how long a control takes you, or how many people you have, so there is no figure here in dollars or weeks. Every number in that sentence comes from the two counts above it and can be re-derived from the free tools without taking our word for any of it.

This number is directional. It says how much of NIST SP 800-171 Rev 3 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.

128 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.

CCM-IAM-0703.01.01argued against and upheld
Account Management

Accounts modified or removed promptly on role change, departure or identity change.

CCM-IAM-0603.01.01argued against and upheld
Account Management

Provisioning process authorises, records and communicates each account grant.

CCM-IAM-1603.01.02argued against and upheld
Access Enforcement

Every access to data and system functions must be authorised, not merely authenticated.

CCM-IVS-0303.01.03argued against and upheld
Information Flow Enforcement

Traffic between environments restricted to authenticated and authorised connections only.

CCM-IAM-0403.01.04argued against and upheld
Separation of Duties

Duties split across identities so no one both performs and approves sensitive actions.

CCM-IAM-0803.01.05argued against and upheld
Least Privilege

Periodic recertification against least privilege withdrawing access no longer justified.

CCM-IAM-0503.01.05argued against and upheld
Least Privilege

Each identity granted only the access its function requires and no more.

CCM-IAM-1003.01.06argued against and upheld
Least Privilege - Privileged Accounts

Privileged roles granted for bounded periods and prevented from accumulating.

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.
