Use of cryptography control depends on correct implementation of standardized cryptographic checks.
A.8.25 mandates security requirements, checkpoints, secure coding, testing (incl. code scans/pen tests) and developer capability in the SDLC, which reaches a minority slice of CWE-358 (incorrect implementation of a standardized security check) but leaves most instances (e.g. flawed protocol logic, spec misinterpretation, or non-coded design errors) unaddressed.
Application security requirements explicitly call for correct implementation of standardized security mechanisms.
A.8.27 mandates applying security-by-design principles (defense-in-depth, least privilege, fail securely, distrust external input, security-oriented design reviews) that reach some but not most instances of CWE-358, which is a narrow implementation error against a standardized check (e.g. protocol-level auth bypass, cert validation flaw) that can still arise in code even when the principles are followed.
