Framework overlap

Does PCI SSF cover PDPA Singapore?

You hold PCI SSF and have been told to do PDPA Singapore. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

88% of PDPA Singapore you already have

PCI SSF already covers about 88% of PDPA Singapore, leaving 1 of 8 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 2 Likely covered 5 New work 1

What is genuinely new work

Nothing in PCI SSF reaches these. This is the list to scope.

PDPASG-7
Retention Limitation, Do Not Call, Compliance, Complaints
Show the 7 you already have
PDPASG-5
Protection, Accuracy, and Security of Personal Data
PDPASG-8
Data Breach Notification, Incident Response, and Enforcement
PDPASG-1
Accountability, Records, DPO Appointment, and Training
PDPASG-2
Notification, Consent, Purpose Limitation, and Lawful Basis
PDPASG-3
Access, Correction, Data Portability, and Individual Rights
PDPASG-4
Children's Data, DPIA, and Privacy by Design
PDPASG-6
Transfer Limitation, Cross-Border Safeguards, and Data Intermediary Oversight

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in PCI SSF 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.
