Start every framework with its controls already defined
Months of authoring before you can manage any risk
Every framework you adopt arrives as a blank slate. ISO 27001 Annex A, NIST SP 800-53, DORA, the AI Act — each one carries its own control hierarchy, categories, and wording, and someone on your team has to transcribe all of it before a single assessment can begin.
That setup work is slow and never quite finished. A control mistyped or missed at the library stage propagates into every gap analysis and audit that follows. Operate across borders, and the same controls get re-authored again in another language.
The result is months spent building scaffolding instead of managing risk — and a control set that drifts the moment a standard is revised.
What you can do with the Control Library
- Browse 30+ predefined frameworks — ISO 27001/27701, NIST CSF and SP 800-53, DORA, NIS2, the AI Act, and more — ready out of the box.
- Navigate full control hierarchies by category and subcategory, exactly as each standard structures them.
- Search and filter controls within any framework to find the obligation you need in seconds.
- Set control applicability per framework, scoping in only what applies to your organization.
- Extend built-in frameworks with custom control sets, without forking the original definitions.
- Add your own external standards alongside the built-ins in the same control model.
What it delivers to your program
- Start assessing on day one — no multi-month authoring phase before your first gap analysis.
- One consistent control model across every framework you report against, internal or regulatory.
- Defensible scoping — applicability decisions are recorded per control, ready to show an auditor.
- Operate across markets without re-keying — multilingual control descriptions let one library serve every entity.
- Custom controls without lock-in — your additions live beside the built-ins, not in a separate tool.
Built for compliance
The library ships control definitions for the frameworks your obligations reference — so the structure is already in place.
| What DPMS does | Maps to | How |
|---|---|---|
| Provides Annex A control definitions | ISO 27001 | Pre-loaded control hierarchy with categories and subcategories |
| Provides the control catalog | NIST SP 800-53 | Pre-loaded controls, searchable and filterable |
| Provides ICT risk-management controls | DORA | Built-in control set for financial-entity scope |
| Records applicability per control | ISO 27001 (Statement of Applicability) | Per-framework applicability decisions, captured at control level |
Why Priverion
Most tools hand you a starter pack and leave the authoring to you. Priverion ships 30+ frameworks pre-loaded with multilingual control definitions — an operating library, not a template.
Because it lives inside a single unified privacy and InfoSec platform, those controls aren't trapped here: the same definitions feed your gap analyses, risk treatments, and assessments without re-keying. Built-in frameworks and your own custom standards coexist in one control model, so extending a standard never means maintaining a parallel system. Unlike general-purpose GRC tools, the integration is the differentiator.
Questions CISOs ask before a demo
Which frameworks come pre-loaded?
Can I add a control or framework that isn't included?
Do the controls come in more than one language?
Can I limit a framework to only the controls that apply to us?
