Mapping Security Posture to Compliance Frameworks

How TrustCyber maps your Microsoft 365 security findings to NIST CSF, CIS Controls v8, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and FTC Safeguards compliance frameworks.

TrustCyber automatically maps every security finding to one or more compliance framework controls. This allows you to demonstrate compliance coverage to auditors, identify gaps in your control environment, and prioritize remediation based on regulatory requirements.

How Mapping Works

Each TrustCyber finding is tagged with one or more framework control identifiers. For example, a finding of 'MFA not enforced for admin accounts' is mapped to NIST CSF PR.AC-7, CIS Control 6.3, ISO 27001 A.9.4.2, and SOC 2 CC6.1. This mapping is maintained by TrustCyber's security research team and updated quarterly as frameworks are revised.

Using the Framework Mapping Page

  • Navigate to Framework Mapping from the left sidebar.
  • Select a framework from the filter chips at the top of the page.
  • The table shows all findings mapped to that framework, grouped by control.
  • Click any finding to see the full finding detail, including remediation guidance.
  • Use the Export button to download a CSV of findings mapped to a specific framework for use in audit documentation.

Compliance Score Calculation

Your Compliance Score is calculated as the percentage of framework controls that are fully or partially satisfied by your current security configuration. A control is considered satisfied if all findings mapped to that control have a status of Resolved or Accepted Risk. A control is partially satisfied if some but not all findings are resolved.

NoteThe Compliance Score is an indicator of control coverage, not a guarantee of regulatory compliance. TrustCyber's framework mappings are based on publicly available guidance and are intended to support your compliance program — they should be reviewed by a qualified compliance professional before being used in formal audit submissions.

Exporting for Auditors

TrustCyber can generate a framework-specific compliance report for use in audit submissions. From the Reports page, select Framework Compliance Report and choose the framework you are being audited against. The report includes a control-by-control breakdown of your compliance status, evidence of control implementation, and a list of open findings that represent control gaps.
