CIS Controls are a globally recognised set of cybersecurity best practices developed by the Center for Internet Security. The CIS Control framework provides prioritised safeguards designed to reduce cyber risk and defend against common attack vectors. Organisations implement CIS Controls to strengthen endpoint security, vulnerability management, access control, and incident response capabilities. By aligning with CIS Controls, businesses achieve structured cybersecurity governance and measurable risk reduction. The CIS Control framework is often used alongside ISO 27001 and NIST standards to enhance security maturity and regulatory compliance.
