Framework overlap

Does BSI IT-Grundschutz cover NIST Privacy Framework?

You hold BSI IT-Grundschutz and have been told to do NIST Privacy Framework. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

100% of NIST Privacy Framework you already have

BSI IT-Grundschutz already covers about 100% of NIST Privacy Framework, leaving 0 of 8 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 4 Likely covered 4 New work 0

What is genuinely new work

Nothing in BSI IT-Grundschutz reaches these. This is the list to scope.

Nothing. Every control is reached.

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in BSI IT-Grundschutz 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.
