500.12-04 Where multi-factor authentication is not utilized, the CISO has approved in writing the use of reasonably equivalent or more secure compensating controls

NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation · 23 NYCRR 500 (2023 Second Amendment)

No machine-readable extract of NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation has been published for CMDash to quote from, so this page carries the identifier and title only rather than wording nobody can check. Nothing is paraphrased or invented.

No cross-framework mapping is seeded for this control. That is stated rather than filled in: a mapping nobody authored is worse than a gap you can see.

These connectors produce data relevant to NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation’s Multi-Factor Authentication family, which is the granularity CMDash publishes — there is no pre-built per-control mapping, and claiming one would be inventing it. You decide which evidence answers which control.
