3GPP 5G Security Architecture (TS 33.501): every control, and what you already have

43 controls 70 frameworks share controls with it International (3GPP) verified against its source document

Every control below is one this framework asks for. The right hand column counts how many other frameworks in our corpus carry the same control, which is the difference between doing this work once and doing it again for the next standard.

3GPP TS 33.501 5G Security Evidence & Implementation Kit

43 controls is the documentation set somebody has to write. This is that set, already written: an adopt-ready artifact for every control in policy and procedure text you edit rather than draft, and the evidence checklist an auditor asks for against each.

See what is in it, $249

The same set every buyer of this kit receives. Nothing here is produced on request.

What you already have

Frameworks whose controls overlap this one, most first. If you run any of them, the count is roughly what you have already evidenced.

What this page is

A control-level reference for 3GPP 5G Security Architecture (TS 33.501), drawn from our framework corpus. Control codes and titles are references to the standard, not reproductions of it. The overlap counts and the auditor artefacts are our own work and are the part you will not find elsewhere.
