ISO 27002:2022CIS Controls v8

ISO 27002:2022 covers 49.7% of CIS Controls v8

76 of the 153 controls in CIS Controls v8 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for ISO 27002:2022. 77 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

CIS Controls v8 has 153 controls. Holding ISO 27002:2022 already evidences 76 of them, so the work in front of you is 77 controls, not 153, which is 50% of the standard rather than all of it.

That is the whole claim. 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.

In money, using only our numbers. The full report is $299 and names 76 controls of CIS Controls v8 you do not have to implement again, which is $3.93 per control identified. That arithmetic uses our price and our count and assumes nothing about you.

In your hours, using your assumption. We do not know what a control costs you to implement, so pick the column that looks like your organisation. These are your figures, not our claim.

and the 77 remaining are308 hours616 hours1,232 hours

Multiply by your own rate. We publish no rate because we have not measured yours, and a number built on an invented rate is the kind of claim this platform exists to argue against.

This number is directional. It says how much of CIS Controls v8 your ISO 27002:2022 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.

281 candidate mappings were examined and 133 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.

5.9CIS-1.1argued against and upheld
Establish and Maintain Detailed Enterprise Asset Inventory

Asset inventory with owners and accuracy requirements is the same artefact CIS asks for.

8.7CIS-10.1argued against and upheld
Deploy and Maintain Anti-Malware Software

Malware protection requires detection software deployed across assets.

8.7CIS-10.2argued against and upheld
Configure Automatic Anti-Malware Signature Updates

Malware protection requires detection and repair software to be kept updated.

8.13CIS-11.1argued against and upheld
Establish and Maintain a Data Recovery Process

Backup control requires a documented backup and restoration policy and scope.

8.13CIS-11.2argued against and upheld
Perform Automated Backups

Backup copies must be taken on a defined schedule matching data sensitivity.

8.13CIS-11.5argued against and upheld
Test Data Recovery

Backup control requires restoration to be tested at planned intervals.

8.22CIS-12.2argued against and upheld
Establish and Maintain a Secure Network Architecture

Segregation of networks requires an architecture built on segmentation and least privilege.

8.20CIS-12.3argued against and upheld
Securely Manage Network Infrastructure

Network security requires networks and network devices to be securely managed.

Claims that did not hold

114 proposed mappings for this pair were rejected. They are kept in the graph rather than deleted, so what was thrown out is as inspectable as what survived. A crosswalk that never rejects anything is not being judged.

5.9CIS-1.3
Utilize an Active Discovery Tool

did not survive the adversarial verification pass run by qwen3-235b-a22b-2507 via openrouter. No per-edge rationale was recorded at the time, so the process is stated rather than a reason invented.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

5.9CIS-1.4
Use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Logging to Update Enterprise Asset Inventory

did not survive the adversarial verification pass run by qwen3-235b-a22b-2507 via openrouter. No per-edge rationale was recorded at the time, so the process is stated rather than a reason invented.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

5.9CIS-1.5
Use a Passive Asset Discovery Tool

did not survive the adversarial verification pass run by qwen3-235b-a22b-2507 via openrouter. No per-edge rationale was recorded at the time, so the process is stated rather than a reason invented.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

8.7CIS-10.3
Disable Autorun and Autoplay for Removable Media

Held back 2026-08-19. Generated by the retired metered path, refuted at 56 percent wherever re-judged. Pair pulled from sale pending a rebuild on the Max plan.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

8.7CIS-10.5
Enable Anti-Exploitation Features

did not survive the adversarial verification pass run by qwen3-235b-a22b-2507 via openrouter. No per-edge rationale was recorded at the time, so the process is stated rather than a reason invented.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

8.9CIS-10.5
Enable Anti-Exploitation Features

retired metered-API path. 56 percent of its output was refuted wherever it was re-judged, so its residue is not trusted evidence. Superseded by judgement on the Claude Max plan 2026-08-19.

Claimed at medium confidence before it was rejected.

8.7CIS-10.7
Use Behavior-Based Anti-Malware Software

retired metered-API path. 56 percent of its output was refuted wherever it was re-judged, so its residue is not trusted evidence. Superseded by judgement on the Claude Max plan 2026-08-19.

Claimed at medium confidence before it was rejected.

5.29CIS-11.1
Establish and Maintain a Data Recovery Process

did not survive the adversarial verification pass run by qwen3-235b-a22b-2507 via openrouter. No per-edge rationale was recorded at the time, so the process is stated rather than a reason invented.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
