Framework overlap

Does SOC 2 cover UK Bribery Act 2010?

You hold SOC 2 and have been told to do UK Bribery Act 2010. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

20% of UK Bribery Act 2010 you already have

SOC 2 already covers about 20% of UK Bribery Act 2010, leaving 4 of 5 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 0 Likely covered 1 New work 4

No control in SOC 2 maps directly to one in UK Bribery Act 2010. 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 SOC 2 reaches these. This is the list to scope.

UKBRIBE-1
Section 7 Strategic Risk Assessment and Adequate Procedures
UKBRIBE-2
Top-Level Commitment and Governance
UKBRIBE-4
Communication, Training, Awareness
UKBRIBE-5
Monitoring, Review, Reporting
Show the 1 you already have
UKBRIBE-3
Due Diligence on Third Parties

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in SOC 2 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.
