What is a CIS Critical Security Controls Assessment?

A CIS Critical Security Controls assessment is a gap analysis of your security program against all 18 CIS Controls and their 153 safeguards, organized into three Implementation Groups. IG1 covers the 56 foundational safeguards every organization needs. IG2 adds 74 more for organizations with compliance obligations or sensitive data. IG3 covers the full 153 for high-risk or critical infrastructure environments.

The CIS Controls are particularly valuable because they map cleanly to almost every compliance framework you’ll encounter — SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, NIST CSF, and CMMC all share significant overlap. One well-executed CIS assessment can accelerate your readiness across multiple frameworks simultaneously.

What Our CIS Controls Assessment Covers

  • All 18 controls assessed against your actual environment with per-safeguard findings — not just a theoretical checklist
  • Implementation Group mapping so you know exactly which safeguards apply to your risk level and compliance obligations
  • Focused coverage of the controls that generate the most SMB findings: CIS 1 (asset inventory), CIS 3 (data protection), CIS 4 (secure configuration), CIS 5 (account management), and CIS 8 (audit logging)
  • Cross-framework coverage map showing how your CIS findings translate to SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and NIST CSF gaps
  • CIS Control 18 (Penetration Testing) evaluated with specific recommendations for satisfying the safeguard at your implementation group level

Why CIS Controls Work for SMBs

Most security frameworks are written for enterprises with large security teams. CIS Implementation Group 1 gives a small business 56 safeguards that block the attack vectors behind the overwhelming majority of breaches — without requiring enterprise tools or budget. You start with IG1, prove those controls work, and build from there.

Common Questions

Common CIS Controls Assessment Questions

Do the CIS Controls satisfy regulatory compliance requirements?

The CIS Controls don’t replace framework-specific requirements, but their overlap with SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and NIST CSF is substantial. A CIS assessment accelerates readiness across multiple frameworks simultaneously and gives auditors a clear, documented baseline to evaluate against.

Which implementation group should my company target?

IG1 for small businesses with limited IT resources. IG2 for companies with compliance obligations or sensitive data. IG3 for regulated industries, critical infrastructure, or mature security programs. We’ll tell you which one is realistic for your environment on the first call.
