AI governance crosswalk: one topic, every framework.

Start from a governance topic, read across to the instrument that governs it, and land on the exact article, clause or control. Or start from one framework and see where another covers it, and where it does not.

EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001 and NIST AI RMF: where they overlap

The three overlap on 20 of the 25 topics in this crosswalk: each files at least one clause there. They differ in force. The EU AI Act is binding law; ISO/IEC 42001 is a certifiable AI management-system standard whose European adoption confers no presumption of conformity with the Act; the NIST AI RMF is a voluntary framework in four functions (Govern, Map, Measure, Manage). Of the topics the Act reaches, 5 have no ISO/IEC 42001 clause here and 2 no NIST AI RMF one. A shared topic means the instruments deal with the same thing, not that meeting one meets the other. How the three fit into the wider field is set out in AI governance and its main frameworks.

Where the three overlap A topic counts for an instrument when it files at least one clause there: 20 topics have a clause in all three, and the data table names the topics of every group. Start a gap review from the 5 topics with no ISO/IEC 42001 clause, reading each as a gap in this mapping, not proof the standard ignores it.

Clause-to-clause explorer

Pick one or more source frameworks and a target. Two clauses are paired when the crosswalk files them under the same topic, so a pair says "these deal with the same thing" (OSCAL intersects-with), never "meeting one meets the other". The gap view lists the target clauses in this crosswalk that no chosen source reaches; it is not a list of every clause the target contains.

Every export says “illustrative, not a claim of conformity” inside the file. The OSCAL export is a mapping collection in the NIST OSCAL 1.2.3 Control Mapping model: one mapping per source framework, relationship intersects-with, with gap summaries. Its id-refs are the crosswalk clause ids (CSA’s own control ids for the AICM), because most of these instruments publish no OSCAL catalog to resolve against.

Each topic, its summary and stack layers, then every mapped reference in full.

Risk management

Identifying, analysing and treating AI risks across the lifecycle, and keeping the treatment current as the system and its context change.
