Framework overlap

Does Azure Security Benchmark cover ASEAN Data Management Framework?

You hold Azure Security Benchmark and have been told to do ASEAN Data Management Framework. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

56% of ASEAN Data Management Framework you already have

Azure Security Benchmark already covers about 56% of ASEAN Data Management Framework, leaving 12 of 27 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 0 Likely covered 15 New work 12

No control in Azure Security Benchmark maps directly to one in ASEAN Data Management Framework. Everything counted as covered is covered because both map to the same third standard, which is what a crosswalk is, but it is an inference rather than a lookup.

What is genuinely new work

Nothing in Azure Security Benchmark reaches these. This is the list to scope.

ADMF-1.5

ADMF-2.1
Leadership commitment in policy (who)

ADMF-2.4
Embed data management in corporate governance and policy
ADMF-3.1

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in Azure Security Benchmark to that control. Likely covered means no direct mapping exists but both frameworks map to the same control in a third standard. New work means neither. We keep those separate rather than adding them into one friendlier number, because blending them would present a two-hop inference as a verified fact.

Coverage is not symmetric. Run it the other way and you will get a different number; both are correct.

From 332,959 cross-framework control mappings across 723 frameworks, 531 of them verified against their source documents. It does not tell you that you are compliant: a mapped control means the two standards ask for the same thing, not that you have done it.
