Framework overlap

Does ISO 9001 cover ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents?

You hold ISO 9001 and have been told to do ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

49% of ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents you already have

ISO 9001 already covers about 49% of ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents, leaving 19 of 37 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 0 Likely covered 18 New work 19

No control in ISO 9001 maps directly to one in ASD Strategies to Mitigate Cyber Security Incidents. 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.

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in ISO 9001 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.
