NIST SP 800-172 covers 23.7% of ISO 27002:2022
22 of the 93 controls in ISO 27002:2022 are already satisfied by evidence you collected for NIST SP 800-172. 71 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 ISO 27002:2022 your NIST SP 800-172 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.
61 candidate mappings were examined and 6 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.
Secure information transfer solutions govern how information moves between connected security domains.
Automated generation, protection, rotation and management of passwords is control of authentication information.
A continuing cycle of identifying, responding to and monitoring supply chain risk is supplier risk management.
A maintained supply chain risk management plan is the documented process for supplier risk.
An authoritative repository of vetted software components controls the software supply chain.
Treating supply chain risk as a continuing cycle rather than a one-off review is ongoing supplier monitoring.
An established cyber incident response team deployable within 24 hours is incident readiness before an incident.
A maintained 24/7 security operations centre is standing incident preparation.
Claims that did not hold
6 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.
control identity corrected 2026-08-19: issued 3.14.3e is scope inclusion or segregation into purpose-specific networks; these mappings are supply chain provenance, a subject absent from the issued 800-172
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
corrected 2026-08-19: judged from a title claiming multifactor authentication, while the control carried 3.5.2e password-management text. Issued 800-172 3.5.3e is comply-to-connect: prohibit connection of unknown or unverified components. Authentication evidence does not satisfy it.
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
control identity corrected 2026-08-19: issued 3.13.1e is component diversity to limit malicious code propagation; these mappings are boundary protection and segmentation, judged against 3.1.3e's content which this control was wrongly carrying
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
control identity corrected 2026-08-19: issued 3.13.3e is confusing and misleading adversaries; these mappings were judged against diversity content, which belongs to issued 3.13.1e
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
control identity corrected 2026-08-19: issued 3.13.2e is introducing unpredictability into operations; these mappings are least privilege and secure engineering, a subject that appears nowhere in the issued 800-172
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
corrected 2026-08-19: judged from a title claiming multifactor authentication, while the control carried 3.5.2e password-management text. Issued 800-172 3.5.3e is comply-to-connect: prohibit connection of unknown or unverified components. Authentication evidence does not satisfy it.
Claimed at high confidence before it was rejected.
