NIST 800-53. Security Controls

1,246 controls · cross-mapped to ATT&CK techniques
Translate between regulatory language and what attackers actually do. Each control maps to MITRE ATT&CK techniques; open a control to see those techniques and whether we hold detection coverage for them.
Audit answer: every control + the techniques it defends + what you can detect (exportable)
