CheckID

Universal check identifiers for cross-framework security control mapping

Overview

The same security control has different identifiers across every compliance framework. "Require MFA for administrators" is CIS 1.1.1 in one benchmark, NIST IA-2 in another, and CMMC AC.L2-3.5.3 in a third. If you assess against multiple frameworks, you end up evaluating the same control repeatedly under different names.

CheckID solves this by creating a universal identifier that links a single security control to all of its framework-specific references. You assess once and map the result to CIS, NIST 800-53, CMMC, FedRAMP, or any other framework that covers that control.

The result is less duplicate work, cleaner cross-framework reporting, and a single source of truth for what you've actually checked.

Key Features

Cross-framework mapping

CIS, NIST 800-53, CMMC, and FedRAMP linked in one system. Map a single assessment result to every relevant framework.

Universal identifiers

One CheckID per security control, regardless of which framework you're reporting against. No more juggling parallel ID schemes.

Reduce duplicate work

Assess a control once and report the finding against multiple frameworks. Stop re-evaluating the same thing under different names.

Extensible

Add new frameworks and mappings as your compliance requirements grow. The system is designed to expand, not lock you in.

How It Works

Each security control gets a single CheckID that serves as the canonical reference. That CheckID links to every framework-specific identifier for the same underlying control.

Example: Require MFA for privileged accounts
CheckID CHK-AUTH-001
CIS 1.1.1
NIST 800-53 IA-2
CMMC AC.L2-3.5.3
FedRAMP IA-2

One assessment, one result, mapped everywhere it needs to go.
