How to defend against today’s top 5 cyber threats
2021-01-19 03:45

Understanding today's most important cyber threats is the first step toward protecting any organization from attack.

Protecting an organization from attack requires more than just knowledge of the most common cyber threats.

It then goes a step further to map the safeguards found in the CIS Controls against the techniques found in each attack, and the security value of implementing the safeguards.

The CIS Controls are a prioritized and prescriptive set of safeguards that mitigate the most common cyber-attacks against systems and networks.

The CIS Controls and the CIS Benchmarks, secure configuration guides for various technologies, are available at no cost to organizations worldwide.

The CIS Controls Self-Assessment Tool provides many benefits for tracking implementation of the CIS Controls that go beyond a simple spreadsheet.
