Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1SOC 2

Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1 covers 57.4% of SOC 2

35 of the 61 controls in SOC 2 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) v4.0.1. 26 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 SOC 2 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.

121 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. This pair was additionally re-checked after CSA CCM v4.0.1 was rebuilt from the CAIQ v4.0.1 source on 2026-08-19: its mappings were originally judged when CCM carried no requirement text, a sample of 70 across the 21 CCM pairs found about 80 percent holding cleanly, and the two identified errors were corrected before release.

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.

A - Availability3 of 3 evidenced
C - Confidentiality2 of 2 evidenced
CC - Common Criteria (Security)21 of 33 evidenced, 12 to do
P - Privacy9 of 18 evidenced, 9 to do
PI - Processing Integrity0 of 5 evidenced, 5 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-IVS-02SOC2-A1.1argued against and upheld
Maintains capacity to meet availability commitments

Capacity and resource planning is the same availability capacity requirement.

CCM-DCS-13SOC2-A1.2argued against and upheld
Environmental protections, data backups, and recovery infrastructure support availability

Environmental systems control is the environmental protection element.

CCM-BCR-08SOC2-A1.2argued against and upheld
Environmental protections, data backups, and recovery infrastructure support availability

Backup control is the data backup element of this requirement.

CCM-BCR-10SOC2-A1.3argued against and upheld
Recovery plan procedures support system recovery from failures

Response plan exercises are the recovery plan testing requirement.

CCM-BCR-06SOC2-A1.3argued against and upheld
Recovery plan procedures support system recovery from failures

Business continuity exercises test recovery procedures.

CCM-DSP-17SOC2-C1.1argued against and upheld
Confidential information is identified and protected during receipt, processing, storage

Sensitive data protection is the safeguarding requirement.

CCM-DSP-04SOC2-C1.1argued against and upheld
Confidential information is identified and protected during receipt, processing, storage

Data classification identifies information requiring confidentiality.

CCM-DSP-02SOC2-C1.2argued against and upheld
Confidential information is disposed of securely

Secure disposal of data is the same requirement.

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.
