NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 covers 50% of NIS2 Directive
14 of the 28 controls in NIS2 Directive are already satisfied by evidence you collected for NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. 14 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
NIS2 Directive has 28 controls. Holding NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 already evidences 14 of them, so the work in front of you is 14 controls, not 28, 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 14 controls of NIS2 Directive you do not have to implement again, which is $21.36 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.
| If a control takes you | 4 hours | 8 hours | 16 hours |
|---|---|---|---|
| the 14 already evidenced are | 56 hours | 112 hours | 224 hours |
| and the 14 remaining are | 56 hours | 112 hours | 224 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 NIS2 Directive 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.

Claims that did not hold
4 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.
