The Center for Internet Security (CIS) Critical Security Controls
- The Center for Internet Security, Inc. “is a non-profit entity that harnesses the power of a global IT community to safeguard private and public organizations against cyber threats.” The CIS Critical Security Controls are the global standard for securing IT systems and data against cyber-attacks. The controls are grouped into three families:
- Basic: implemented at the infrastructure or system Administration level
- Foundational: implemented in the wired or wireless network infrastructure
- Organizational: non-technical controls focused on people and processes
The goals are to:
- Clearly define each of the 20 critical controls
- Review the business goal that the control addresses
- Explain why the control should be put in place
- Define the security threat that is addressed by the control
- Identify the weakness that the control uncovers
- Provide implementation recommendations
The Session will cover the following areas:
- A discussion of Information Technology Strategic Management
- Development and updating of the 20 critical cyber controls by the Center for Internet Security (CIS)
- The 20 controls themselves by family
- Basic: implemented at the infrastructure or system Administration level
- Foundational: implemented in the wired or wireless network infrastructure
- Organizational: Non-technical controls focused on people and processes
To better your understanding of the cybersecurity environment as it exists today. This is a non-technical review of critical cybersecurity controls designed with a minimum of “techno-jargon” focused on communicating, to business leaders, and the importance of cybersecurity controls in today’s business environment.
