𝐀𝐍𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 – February 21, 2022 – Today we release the Center for Internet Security Controls v8 into the RealCISO.io platform. Everyone can use RealCISO to assess their organization against the Top 18 Critical Security Controls. It’s now even easier to understand and manage your cyber risk.
This release is the first move from CISv7 to CISv8 cybersecurity controls for all assessments. The CIS Critical Security Controls (CIS Controls) are a prioritized set of Safeguards to mitigate the most prevalent cyber-attacks against systems and networks. They are mapped to and referenced by multiple legal, regulatory, and policy frameworks.
RealCISO is the ideal self assessment, audit readiness and compliance platform for any organization
Startups
- Gain visibility into current security posture
- Prove security to early customers
- Need to be audit ready for SOC2, ISO, & HIPAA
Larger organizations
- Quickly and continuously assess business lines
- Allow for decentralized assessments with centralized visibility
- Visibility into systemic gaps across enterprise
CIS Controls v8 has been enhanced to keep up with modern systems and software. Movement to cloud-based computing, virtualization, mobility, outsourcing, Work-from-Home, and changing attacker tactics prompted the update and supports an enterprise’s security as they move to both fully cloud and hybrid environments.
We have a great team with Nick Hnatiw, Matt Farry, Brian Haugli and Akash Desai. The customer feedback from the over 500 organizations using RealCISO has really driven the development roadmap. We’re really excited about the next releases this quarter and year.
