CMDash has a dedicated Secureframe importer. Export your controls, policies and Data Room index as CSV and CMDash maps them onto its own framework catalogs and policy templates, reporting every line as matched, low-confidence or unmatched before it writes anything — see /switch/secureframe for the column-by-column detail, including that a Secureframe export reflects whatever columns your saved view happens to show and is silently truncated at around 1,000 rows. Risks, and the Defense-tier CMMC artifacts Secureframe tracks, are separate; risks still go through the Risk Register’s Import button (columns: Title, Description, Category, Likelihood, Impact, Status, Notes).
What a Secureframe export does and does not carry over — column by column, with the switching offer.
