CROSS-FRAMEWORK CONFLICTS
Curated Catalog of Conflicts Between Installed Regulatory Packs
A curated catalog of where installed regulatory packs interact in conflicting ways. Filter by framework, topic, severity, or acknowledgement state; click a row for side-by-side framework positions and the acknowledge, assign, and resolve workflow.
Why Cross-Framework Conflicts Matters
A country compliance manager running a multi-framework programme (PDPL, GDPR, ePrivacy, Cybersecurity Law, ISO 27001, SOC 2, DORA, NIS2) does not have time to discover framework conflicts by trial and error. The conflicts are discovered when an inspector points them out, or worse, when a regulator sanctions a position the legal team thought was defensible.
Forseti provides a curated catalog of known framework conflicts. GDPR data minimisation versus Cybersecurity Law log retention. PDPL cross-border restriction versus DORA cross-EU reporting. SOC 2 evidence retention versus the right to erasure. Twenty-two known conflicts across twelve framework pairs are available out of the box. Each conflict carries the requirement IDs from both sides, a description of the tension, suggested resolutions, and a flag indicating whether legal-counsel review is required before resolution.
The catalog is filterable by framework pair, by topic (retention / cross-border / consent / evidence / log / incident notification / breach notification), by severity, and by acknowledgement state. The country compliance manager triages new conflicts on a regular cadence; the legal counsel reviews the legally-loaded ones; the module owners take the operational ones. Every acknowledgement, assignment, and resolution is recorded in the audit trail so auditors can see the state.

Conflict Catalog
Filterable catalog of curated cross-framework conflicts with acknowledge, assign, resolve workflow
Filter by framework pair, by topic, by severity, or by acknowledgement state. Click a row for the side-by-side framework positions, the suggested resolutions, and the acknowledge / assign / resolve workflow. New conflicts introduced through regulatory pack updates appear in a "new since last review" view.
- Filter by framework pair, topic, severity, state
- Side-by-side framework positions per conflict
- Acknowledge, assign, and resolve with operator and time recorded
WHAT FORSETI WILL NOT DO
The constraints are the product.
The features ride on top.
Built for Trust.
Every guardrail is intentional.
Nothing is left to chance.
Designed for Audit.
Every decision is traceable.
Every action leaves a trail.
Auto-Resolve Conflicts
The catalog does not auto-resolve conflicts. Resolution requires a recorded operator action.
Assign Owners
The catalog does not assign conflicts to users. A human selects the responsible individual.
Update Silently
The catalog does not silently update conflicts. New or changed conflicts require review.
Share Conflict States
The catalog does not share conflict states across organizations. Data remains isolated.

Frequently Asked Questions About Forseti Cross-Framework Conflicts
Twenty-two known conflicts across twelve framework pairs are available out of the box. The catalog expands when new regulatory packs ship or when existing packs are updated. New or shifted conflicts show in a "new since last review" view so they are not missed.
The current pairs include GDPR × Cybersecurity Law, PDPL × DORA, SOC 2 × right to erasure (GDPR / PDPL), ISO 27001 × SOC 2 evidence cadence, ePrivacy national overlays against each other where consent mechanisms diverge, and several others. The exact pair set is visible on the catalog and updates as packs evolve.
Yes. Each conflict carries a flag indicating whether legal-counsel review is required before resolution. The triage flow routes flagged conflicts to the legal counsel; resolution by another role is blocked until counsel has signed off.
The resolution is recorded in the audit trail with the operator, the resolution rationale, and the time. The conflict moves to a "resolved" state. If the underlying regulatory pack later changes in a way that reopens the conflict, the catalog displays it in the "new since last review" view for re-triage.
Yes. Auditors can see the conflict catalog, the acknowledgement state, the assigned owner, the resolution rationale, and the audit trail of every state change. This makes the conflict-triage discipline part of the inspection-readiness story rather than a hidden operational practice.
