2024 Edition: Cybersecurity Standards Scorecard
summary
Research compares about 94 standards by ingesting each PDF into a JSON serverless database, normalizing roughly 400 safeguards, and scoring comprehensive frameworks against that master set. A Cyber Rosetta Stone at crfsecure.org exposes gaps (853 is most comprehensive; few frameworks prioritize), offers an Excel assessment of ~400 questions, and uses an API plus ChatGPT to produce auto-generated policies. The pipeline runs and scales, accelerating mappings and comparative analytics for new or missing standards.
