How does a regulated insurer apply the Secure Controls Framework in practice to satisfy many obligations at once?
The firm maps its statutory, contractual, regulatory and leading-practice obligations onto the SCF, then selects only the controls relevant to it — e.g. ~400 of the ~1,450 SCF controls for ISO 27002, NIST CSF and DORA.
Different obligation sources (statutory, contractual, regulatory obligations, plus leading practices) feed into many standards — and the SCF sits underneath all of them as the common layer delivering Compliance by Design, Security by Design, and Privacy by Design. For Helvetia Baloise, the especially relevant frameworks are ISO 27002:2022, NIST CSF, and DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act). From the ~1,450 SCF controls, about 400 are selected as relevant — giving the firm "Compliance, Security & Privacy by Design" without separately implementing each standard.
