Webinar: Modernizing Your Cyber Security Approach with the Center for Internet Security
During this Webinar, you’ll hear directly from our panel of experts as we discussed the increased importance of applying the Center for Internet Security Controls as a modern cyber security approach. The session also highlighted the benefits of combining the CIS standards with ongoing, real-time compliance monitoring.
This webinar also covers:
- Why is it that a huge number of breaches are still able to exploit existing known vulnerabilities?
- Why do you need to understand the state of the configuration of your IT estate?
- Why do organizations tend to prioritize focus on perimeter defenses at the expense of the actual systems that store sensitive data?
- What is the latest guidance with respect to Ransomware?
- Why is CIS relevant?
- Eliminating vulnerabilities by hardening comes with a health warning - there’s an element of risk when access/functionality is disabled – what is the safest way to do it?
This session is designed to help you review why the Center for Internet Security is relevant and how you can be leveraging its resources to improve the security of your IT estate.
Our panel of experts for this webinar include David Froud with Core Concept Security, Adam Montville with the Center for Internet Security, NNT CTO- Mark Kedgley, and NNT CEO- Mark Kerrison.
The Center for Internet Security is primarily known as the information security industry’s leading authority on security configuration guidance, developing comprehensive, consensus-derived checklists to help identify and mitigate known security vulnerabilities. CIS Benchmarks are the recommended hardening build-standard for all security and compliance initiatives.
NNT Change Tracker has been awarded CIS Security Software Certification for CIS Security Benchmarks across all Linux and Windows platforms, Unix Database Systems, Applications and Web Servers since May 2014.
With NNT’s Change Tracker Gen7, we combine a defined, compliant and hardening system standard with real-time File Integrity Monitoring to offer reassurance that systems are and will remain in a secure state at all times.
