The fundamental controls remain the same, but they are separated into three distinct categories: basic, foundational and organizational.
• The basic category comprises of the first six Controls 1-6 which forms the bare minimal requirements for essential cyber defense readiness. Implementing these controls will reduce a huge part of the attack surface when a hacker is trying to break into the system.
• The foundational category contains the CIS Controls from seventh
to the sixteenth. This is next step up after the basic controls and
it states the set of best practices that can be followed by any
organization to proactively take measures against
cyber-attacks.
• The last and final Organizational category covers the last four
of the CIS Controls. These controls are more focused towards the
people and processes aspect of an enterprise cybersecurity.
Just by implementing the first two of the CIS controls, we are able to tackle both the financial and the security goals of any cybersecurity based project. This is one of the main reasons for us to choose CIS Cybersecurity framework. Also, unlike other frameworks which vaguely describes different aspects of an enterprise security in a theoretical manner, CIS Security Framework gets the job done in an accurate and a hands-on practical manner. It gets into step by step technical details, which is easy to understand and simple to implement.
