A framework is a basic
conceptual structure used
to solve or address
complex issues
Regulation: Rules or laws defined and enforced
by an authority to regulate conduct. ISACA
(e.g., GDPR)
Standard: A mandatory requirement, code of
practice or specification approved by a recognized
external standards organization (such as ISO). ISACA
(e.g.., ISO 27701, BS 10012, ISO 29100)
Guideline: Non-mandatory information leading to a
compliant solution for the related requirement. ISO
(e.g., NOREA Guide)
ISACA
All of them can be used as frameworks!

1. ISO 29100
ISO/IEC 29100:2011 Information technology —
Security techniques — Privacy framework
This standard was last reviewed and confirmed in 2017.
ISO/IEC 29100:2011 provides a privacy framework which:
• specifies a common privacy terminology;
• defines the actors and their roles in processing personally
identifiable information (PII);
• describes privacy safeguarding considerations; and
• provides references to known privacy principles for information
technology.
ISO 29100 is applicable to natural persons and organizations
involved in specifying, procuring, architecting, designing,
developing, testing, maintaining, administering, and operating
information and communication technology systems or services
where privacy controls are required for the processing of PII.
• Organisation: ISO
• CHF 124 ($140)

2. ISO 27701
ISO/IEC 27701:2019 Security techniques —
Extension to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002 for
privacy information management —
Requirements and guidelines
This document specifies requirements and provides guidance for
establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually
improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) in
the form of an extension to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002
for privacy management within the context of the organization.
This document specifies PIMS-related requirements and provides
guidance for PII controllers and PII processors holding
responsibility and accountability for PII processing.
This document is applicable to all types and sizes of
organizations, including public and private companies,
government entities and not-for-profit organizations, which are
PII controllers and/or PII processors processing PII within an
ISMS.

3. ICO Accountability
Framework
Accountability is one of the key principles in data protection law
– it makes you responsible for complying with the legislation and
says that you must be able to demonstrate your compliance.
The framework is an opportunity for you to assess your
organisation’s accountability. Depending on your circumstances,
you may use it in different ways. For example, you may want to:
• create a comprehensive privacy management programme;
• check your existing practices against the ICO’s expectations;
• consider whether you could improve existing practices,
perhaps in specific areas;
• understand ways to demonstrate compliance;
• record, track and report on progress;
• or increase senior management engagement and privacy
awareness across your organisation.
Organisation: ICO (UK)

12. 12

The framework is divided into 10 categories.
Selecting a category will display ICO’s key
expectations and a bullet-pointed list of ways
you can meet their expectations.
1. Leadership and oversight
2. Policies and procedures
3. Training and awareness
4. Individuals’ rights
5. Transparency
6. Records of processing and lawful basis
7. Contracts and data sharing
8. Risks and data protection impact
assessments (DPIAs)
9. Records management and security
10.Breach response and monitoring

4. TrustArc - Nymity
Framework
The TrustArc-Nymity integrated Privacy and Data
Governance Accountability Frameworks combine and
align privacy and data governance controls with privacy
management activities across the privacy program lifecycle
to help organizations effectively achieve these goals and
continuously improve upon them over time.
A framework-based approach can be implemented at any
stage of a privacy program.

5. MITRE Privacy
Maturity Model
Framework for developing, implementing, maintaining, and
evaluating privacy programs. Privacy programs must be
comprehensive enough to address all requirements established by
authoritative sources (e.g., laws, regulations, guidance), and must
be supported by written policies, appropriate training, ongoing
practices, and appropriate assessment.
This model may be used to assess both completeness (whether an
organization has identified and implemented all elements of a
privacy program) and maturity level (an evaluation of to what
degree practices supporting each element are effective in achieving
their intended purpose).
It was developed based not only on comprehensive research of
relevant laws and guidance, but on practices that have been
assessed as effective in many organizations.

6. NIST Privacy
Framework
The NIST Privacy Framework is a voluntary tool developed in
collaboration with stakeholders intended to help organizations
identify and manage privacy risk to build innovative products and
services while protecting individuals’ privacy.
NIST is developing the framework to help organizations with:
• Building customer trust by supporting ethical decision-making
in product and service design or deployment that optimizes
beneficial uses of data while minimizing adverse consequences
for individuals’ privacy and society as a whole;
• Fulfilling current compliance obligations, as well as future-
proofing products and services to meet these obligations in a
changing technological and policy environment; and
• Facilitating communication about privacy practices with
customers, assessors, and regulators.

Management
Framework
The Privacy Management Framework (PMF) can be used as
a foundational element in establishing and operating a
comprehensive information privacy program that addresses
privacy obligations and risks while facilitating current and
future business opportunities.

8. NDMO Standards
The National Data Management and Personal Data Protection
Standards document covers 15 Data Management and Personal
Data Protection domains. To support the development of the
Data Management and Personal Data Protection standards, a set
of international references, internal relevant policies and
regulations, and guiding principles were defined.
Government Entities (KSA) must implement the standards, and
compliance will be measured yearly to monitor progress and
drive efforts towards a successful implementation.

and practices against this guide.

[Concept] Mapping - An indication that one
concept is related to another concept. NIST

Mapping
The main question:
How does conforming to one framework help
the organization conform to another framework?
Five Important Assumptions for the Mapping
1. The intended users of the mapping
2. Why someone would want to use this mapping
3. The types of concepts to be mapped
4. The direction of the mapping
5. How exhaustive the mapping will be
