DORA covers 17.3% of NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1
33 of the 191 controls in NIST SP 800-161 Rev 1 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for DORA. 158 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 800-161 Rev 1 your DORA 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.
59 candidate mappings were examined and 0 were removed. Signed off 2026-08-20, 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.
Sharing arrangements must protect the sensitivity of the information exchanged and respect data protection law.
ICT security awareness programmes must be maintained for staff.
Digital operational resilience training must be delivered to the roles that carry the duties.
An ICT business continuity policy must be in place covering critical or important functions.
Response and recovery plans must sustain critical functions through disruption and restore them.
Continuity and recovery plans are subject to regular testing.
A documented incident management process with roles and communication plans must be established.
Scenario-based and end-to-end testing of critical ICT systems is required at least yearly.
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.
