The 2026.3 Secure Controls Framework (SCF) release contains coverage for the Brilliant at the Basics (BatB) practices (https://dowcio.war.gov/BrilliantBasics/). This covers both the IT and OT best practice guidance, where the crosswalk mapping is done per NIST IR 8477 Set Theory Relationship Mapping (STRM) that provides transparency for how the BatB IT and OT practices are mapped to SCF controls.
