Framework overlap

Does ISO 15189:2022 cover NATO STANAG 4774 (Confidentiality Metadata Labels) and STANAG 4778 (Metadata Binding)?

You hold ISO 15189:2022 and have been told to do NATO STANAG 4774 (Confidentiality Metadata Labels) and STANAG 4778 (Metadata Binding). Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

25% of NATO STANAG 4774 (Confidentiality Metadata Labels) and STANAG 4778 (Metadata Binding) you already have

ISO 15189:2022 already covers about 25% of NATO STANAG 4774 (Confidentiality Metadata Labels) and STANAG 4778 (Metadata Binding), leaving 6 of 8 controls as genuinely new work.

What is genuinely new work

Nothing in ISO 15189:2022 reaches these. This is the list to scope.

STANAG-3
Label Authoring, Originator Identification, and Policy Identifier
STANAG-4
Cross-Domain Label Translation and Interoperability Testing
STANAG-5
Label Verification on Ingress and Label Preservation Through Processing
STANAG-6
Label Handling in Email, Documents, and Storage
STANAG-7
Incident Response, User Training, and Label Audit
STANAG-8
Label Caveats, Releasability, and Conditions
Show the 2 you already have
STANAG-1
STANAG 4774 Confidentiality Label Schema and XML Structure
STANAG-2
STANAG 4778 Metadata Binding Mechanism and Cryptographic Binding

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in ISO 15189:2022 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.
