Framework Crosswalking: Map Once. Comply Everywhere
Bring all your frameworks into a harmonized operating model. Map controls, reuse evidence, and keep reporting consistent as regulations evolve.

Manual Mapping Is Costly. Inconsistent. Unsustainable.
Managing multiple frameworks shouldn’t mean managing chaos. Manual work and redundant documentation create inefficiencies that slow down compliance and can increase risk.
Manual Mapping Is a Time Trap
Without automated compliance framework mapping, teams spend hours re-mapping similar requirements instead of strengthening their programs.
Manual Mapping Creates Inconsistent Programs
When mapping happens in spreadsheets or static documents, evidence, ownership, and scoring quickly fall out of sync. Frameworks drift apart and updates get lost in translation.
Disconnected Systems Limit Visibility
Managing frameworks separately makes it nearly impossible to see overall coverage, maturity, or risk. Without unified cross-framework reporting, leadership and auditors can’t get a clear view of security and compliance health.
Scaling Programs Can Multiply the Effort
Expanding your programs should be good news, without the need to rebuild the same controls over and over. Without control mapping, audits and readiness are delayed, and team bandwidth gets drained with duplicate work.
Harmonize How You Deliver and Maintain Compliance
Whether you’re guiding clients or running internal programs, framework crosswalking gives you the same advantage: less manual effort, consistent results, and scalable growth across every new framework.
Scale Client Programs with Less Effort
MSSPs, MDRs, and consultants can deliver faster, more consistent engagements while reducing manual effort and maximizing service margins.
Reduce Audit Prep by 40%
Reuse client evidence, testing outcomes, and control responses across mapped frameworks, shortening audit readiness cycles for every engagement.
Deliver Harmonized Programs Across Clients
Run multiple client frameworks from one unified control set. Update once and roll out changes automatically across all relevant framworks, keeping delivery consistent and efficient.
Differentiate with Transparency
Give clients visibility into maturity, coverage, and gaps across frameworks. Unified dashboards and reports make it easy to demonstrate ROI and program value.
Grow Without Growing Your Workload
Add new frameworks, clients, or regions without expanding your team. Automation and propagation features keep scaling efficient and profitable.
Run One Program Across Multiple Standards
Keep ownership, tasks, and evidence aligned across ISO, NIST, PCI, HIPAA, CMMC, and more, using your program’s unique ways of working.
Eliminate Redundant Controls
Consolidate overlapping requirements into shared controls. Update one control, and the change is reflected automatically across every mapped framework.
Maintain Consistency Across Frameworks
Ensure all evidence, tasks, and ownership remain aligned as frameworks evolve; creating a single source of truth for compliance data.
Adapt as Regulations Change
Easily add new frameworks or standards to your harmonized program without starting from scratch. Maintain agility as compliance requirements evolve.
Gain Full Visibility
Access unified dashboards showing maturity, coverage, and gaps by framework, domain, or control family; perfect for leadership and auditor review.
How It Works
Apptega’s framework mapping automation brings speed and flexibility to security and compliance operations, so teams can focus on what matters most: protection.
Unify Overlapping Requirements
Create a single source of truth across frameworks by normalizing redundant requirements into Apptega Common Control Sets. Each control can share owners, evidence, risks, tasks, and due dates, so you can update once and sync everywhere.
Map Frameworks Visually
Compare frameworks side by side, align controls, and preview impacts before publishing with Crosswalk Studio.
Automate Data Consistency
Use Dominant Control & Field Propagation to set one control as your authoritative record. Any changes automatically cascade to every linked framework, eliminating manual updates and errors.

Detach Frameworks Without Losing Data
Disconnect frameworks at any time without affecting historical records as each retains its native evidence, status, and history for full continuity.
Report from Any Angle
Use Unified Reporting & Rollups to toggle between a blended view of your entire program or framework-specific reports. Export comprehensive dashboards showing maturity, coverage, and progress in minutes.
Clearly, managed compliance represents a lucrative opportunity for the relative few services and security providers equipped to offer it. Unfortunately, most lack the technology, resources and know-how to deliver an impactful assessment and follow-on program. At CyberSecOp, we've partnered with Apptega to go to market with a differentiated continuous compliance offering that allows our world-class security expertise to shine.
With Apptega, Foresite is able to go to market with highly differentiated continuous compliance offerings that empower us to better deliver and prove the value of our best-in-class cybersecurity services and consulting.
Apptega is an excellent, to-the-point, cost-effective GRC platform for MSPs and MSSPs. Quickly spin up new clients, complete assessments against a myriad of frameworks, add risk, crosswalk between platforms, get excellent support, and affordable licensing.
With Apptega, we’re able to take a cost-effective DIY approach to cybersecurity readiness and compliance. The built-in guidance for each of the sub-controls helps us quickly compare what we are actually doing with what we need to be doing. Gaps are readily identified, and remediation tasks are set up in the platform to give us a 360-degree view of our status and plans.
Until Apptega, I couldn’t find a cost-effective GRC tool that measured and assessed risk and controls well. Not only does Apptega have a better price point than anyone else, it’s a powerful platform that helps me with my reporting, gives my clients instant feedback, and holds them accountable.
Having a presentable, useful platform that both my employees and clients can use to achieve consistent, tangible results increased our efficiency and availability while also strengthening our client relationships.
Being able to cross-map between different frameworks is huge. I don’t want to have to gather the same data 16 different times.
Apptega's primary value is that it lets us organize our advisory process around the needs of our customers, and give us a better way to convey the impact of the process.
