Security Lights the Way

Standards comparison

See what carries over

Pick the standard you have and the one you want next. See, clause by clause and control by control, what you can reuse, what to extend and what is new — and whether you need to rewrite your policies.

Detailed comparisons

Clause by clause and control by control, with what to do with each document. Each works in both directions.

Any other two of the 39 frameworks on MajorCyber™ can be compared side by side with the selector above. More detailed comparisons are on the way.

How it works

  1. At a glance, for any pair

    What kind of thing each is, how it applies, how you show you meet it, and where — from MajorCyber™’s guide to each.

  2. The management system, clause by clause

    ISO management-system standards share a harmonised structure, so clauses 4 to 10 line up. Each clause of the standard you want is marked against the one you have.

  3. Controls and documents

    Every control of the standard you want, with the controls you already run that support it, and what to do with each document.

What the marks mean

Reuse
Use what you have: the same process or document, with its scope widened.
Extend
Keep what you have and add the new standard’s content.
New
Nothing you have covers it: new work.
Keep separate
Must stay distinct, even in an integrated system.

An educational comparison. A mapping shows where work you have already done supports a requirement; it never means the requirement is met, and your certification body decides what conforms. Clause and control numbers are cited; no standard’s text is reproduced.
