Controls are your cybersecurity & data privacy program ---- A control is the power to influence or direct behaviors and the course of events.

Secure Controls Framework (SCF) Laws, Regulations & Frameworks (LRF)

The SCF contains a considerable breadth of coverage. If you download the SCF, you will find these listed on the "Authoritative Sources" tab. These Authoritative Sources are categorized by:

  • General Frameworks (univeral and not country/geo-specific)
  • US - United States
  • EMEA - Europe Middle East & Africa
  • APAC - Asia Pacific
  • Americas - Non-US North, Central & South America

To understand the coverage for these Laws, Regulations and Frameworks (LRF), please read through how the SCF leverages Set Theory Relationship Mapping (STRM) according to NIST IR 8477 to demonstrate how SCF controls address targeted LRF requirements. The 2026.1 version of the SCF contains coverage for 250 unique LRF:
