NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 79.2% of APRA CPS 234

19 of the 24 controls in APRA CPS 234 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. 5 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

APRA CPS 234 has 24 controls. Holding NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 already evidences 19 of them, so the work in front of you is 5 controls, not 24, which is 21% 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 APRA CPS 234 your NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 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.

60 candidate mappings were examined and 5 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.

NIST-CSF-GV.RR-01CPS 234 para 13argued against and upheld
Board Responsibility for Information Security

Both place ultimate accountability for cybersecurity risk with organizational leadership.

NIST-CSF-GV.RR-02CPS 234 para 14argued against and upheld
Definition of Information Security Roles and Responsibilities

Both require cybersecurity roles and responsibilities to be established across governance layers.

NIST-CSF-GV.RR-03CPS 234 para 15argued against and upheld
Information Security Capability

Both require resources allocated adequate to the cybersecurity risk faced.

NIST-CSF-ID.RA-10CPS 234 para 16argued against and upheld
Assessment of Related Party and Third Party Capability

Both require critical suppliers to be assessed on the risk they carry.

NIST-CSF-GV.OV-02CPS 234 para 17argued against and upheld
Active Maintenance of Capability Against Change

Both require the risk approach reviewed for coverage as threats and assets change.

NIST-CSF-GV.PO-02CPS 234 para 18argued against and upheld
Information Security Policy Framework

Both require the policy maintained through review and update over time.

NIST-CSF-GV.PO-01CPS 234 para 18argued against and upheld
Information Security Policy Framework

Both require a cybersecurity policy established from organizational context and strategy.

NIST-CSF-GV.PO-02CPS 234 para 19argued against and upheld
Policy Direction to All Responsible Parties

Both require policy communicated to and enforced against those it binds.

Claims that did not hold

5 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.

NIST-CSF-GV.SC-07CPS 234 para 16
Assessment of Related Party and Third Party Capability

NIST CSF 2.0 GV.SC-07 held a different requirement when this was judged: understanding, recording, prioritising and monitoring supplier risk, not verifying supply chain risk management. Corrected against the issued core 2026-08-21.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

NIST-CSF-GV.SC-07CPS 234 para 22
Evaluation of Third Party Control Design

NIST CSF 2.0 GV.SC-07 held a different requirement when this was judged: understanding, recording, prioritising and monitoring supplier risk, not verifying supply chain risk management. Corrected against the issued core 2026-08-21.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

NIST-CSF-ID.RA-08CPS 234 para 27
Systematic Control Testing Program

NIST CSF 2.0 ID.RA-08 held a different requirement when this was judged: vulnerability disclosure processes, not effectiveness of risk responses. Corrected against the issued core 2026-08-21.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

NIST-CSF-GV.SC-07CPS 234 para 28
Assessment of Reliance on Third Party Control Testing

NIST CSF 2.0 GV.SC-07 held a different requirement when this was judged: understanding, recording, prioritising and monitoring supplier risk, not verifying supply chain risk management. Corrected against the issued core 2026-08-21.

Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.

NIST-CSF-GV.SC-07CPS 234 para 34
Internal Audit Assessment of Third Party Control Assurance

NIST CSF 2.0 GV.SC-07 held a different requirement when this was judged: understanding, recording, prioritising and monitoring supplier risk, not verifying supply chain risk management. Corrected against the issued core 2026-08-21.

Claimed at medium confidence before it was rejected.
