The Center for Internet Security (CIS) framework (or the Center for Internet Security Control Framework) enables businesses and organisations to build stronger, more resilient systems against threats.
The framework includes a series of best practices which entities can implement to help protect their operations against cyber attacks and vulnerabilities.
With today’s expansive digital landscape and attacks becoming more sophisticated, improving the resilience of your infrastructure has never been so critical.
Why CIS is so important
Globalisation and a borderless digital landscape has led to vastly increased opportunities for today's businesses. Markets are more open, regions are more accessible, and revenue streams are more diverse.
Inevitably, the greater the reach, the greater the risk to businesses' cyber security and Intellectual Property. And the greater the need to enhance protection measures.
Implementing the framework within your operations enables improved security, regulatory compliance, and a more pragmatic approach to cyber security.
System Hardening
Data Breaches & Leaks
Log Monitoring
Patch Management
Access Control
The framework not only helps mitigate these and other cyber security threats, but provides an action plan for you and your teams in the event of an attack.
CIS Benchmarks vs. CIS Controls
CIS Benchmarks
A series of specific recommendations to help you achieve a CIS Control.
Each benchmark will refer to 1 or more of the CIS Controls.
CIS Controls
A set of generic guidelines to help secure your systems and infrastructure
Access support with the NIST framework
CIS Controls map to other frameworks, such as NIST CSF and NIST 800-53, PCI-DSS and more. If you need support with control mapping or other regulatory compliance needs, get in touch.
