CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) vs NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 MODERATE
What is the difference between CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) and NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 MODERATE?
CFTC System Safeguards (17 CFR 37, 38, 39, 49) is a risk management framework applying in the United States (CFTC), with 39 controls across 5 domains. NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 MODERATE is a information security framework applying in the United States, with 275 controls across 20 domains. They govern different subjects, so the overlap is limited to the governance requirements they share. The mapping below shows where that is.
Measured coverage between these frameworks
We map controls between these two frameworks in a knowledge graph and have a person review every mapping before it is published. Below is what that review found. The figures are read live from the graph, not written by hand.
Coverage is directional. Mapping A into B is a different measurement from B into A, because the two standards do not carry the same depth on the same subjects.
