Center for Internet Security (CIS)

The Center for Internet Security (CIS) is a nonprofit organization that develops widely accepted cybersecurity best practices. Its most recognized frameworks, the CIS Controls and CIS Benchmarks, provide step-by-step guidance to help organizations secure their systems, reduce vulnerabilities, and maintain compliance.

CIS Benchmarks cover operating systems, cloud platforms, network devices, and applications. They are trusted by governments, enterprises, and security professionals to establish a secure baseline and improve overall defense.
