What is CIS Controls?
The CIS (Center for Internet Security) Controls framework is a set of best practices designed to help organizations improve their cybersecurity posture and protect against common cyber threats. These controls provide a practical and prioritized approach to enhance an organization’s cybersecurity defenses. The framework is organized into three categories: Basic, Foundational, and Organizational Controls.
1. Basic Controls: Emphasize fundamental actions for organizations to establish a strong foundation in cybersecurity.
2. Foundational Controls: Build upon the basics, offering additional protective measures to address specific security concerns and enhance an organization’s overall security posture.
3. Organizational Controls: Focus on governance, risk management, and response, aiding organizations in developing a mature and effective cybersecurity program.
