Framework overlap

Does ISO 27001:2022 cover Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven)?

You hold ISO 27001:2022 and have been told to do Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven). Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

25% of Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven) you already have

ISO 27001:2022 already covers about 25% of Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven), leaving 6 of 8 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 0 Likely covered 2 New work 6

No control in ISO 27001:2022 maps directly to one in Personal Data Act (personopplysningsloven). 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 ISO 27001:2022 reaches these. This is the list to scope.

NORWAY-1
GDPR Implementation, Scope, Transparency, Lawful Basis
NORWAY-2
Data Subject Rights and Automated Decision-Making
NORWAY-3
Special Categories, Children's Data, Employment Context
NORWAY-4
DPIA, Privacy by Design, Records of Processing
NORWAY-6
International Transfers and Processor Agreements
NORWAY-7
DPO, Cooperation with Datatilsynet, Retention, Marketing, Training

NORWAY-5
Security of Processing, Encryption, Pseudonymization, Access Control
NORWAY-8
Breach Notification, Complaints, Compliance, Enforcement

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in ISO 27001:2022 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.
