A practitioner-grade, domain-level crosswalk between CMMC 2.0 and ISO/IEC 27001. Understand how these compliance standards overlap to streamline your audit programs.
Defensible domain-level alignment based on substantial topical overlap between ISO/IEC 27001 Annex A and NIST SP 800-171 (which CMMC Level 2 adopts as its practice set). This is not a citation to a single current, official one-to-one crosswalk table, so treat it as directional guidance, not an equivalence claim.
Access management and authentication controls in Technological Controls correspond to CMMC's Access Control domain.
Technological Controls' configuration-management and authentication provisions correspond to CMMC's combined Audit, Configuration, and Identity domain.
Cryptography, network security, and malicious-code protection in Technological Controls correspond to CMMC's System Protection and Integrity domain.
Physical entry security in ISO's Physical Controls theme corresponds to the physical-security slice of CMMC's combined Physical, Personnel, Risk, and Assessment domain.
Pre-employment screening in ISO's People Controls theme corresponds to the personnel-security slice of the same CMMC domain.
