Frameworks
Build your security foundation with CIS Controls
Without prioritised security controls, you're left guessing what actually protects you from cyber attacks.
Tidal simplifies CIS Controls implementation into focused, measurable steps. Implement the 18 critical controls in priority order, automate security monitoring, and build measurable cyber resilience.
CIS Controls in depth
The CIS Controls are a set of concrete security measures that help organisations directly reduce cyber risks. Unlike many normative frameworks, the CIS Controls are strongly operationally oriented and focused on what organisations must do today to prevent or limit attacks.
In practice, CIS Controls are often implemented in isolation, without clear coherence or prioritisation. This makes it unclear which controls reduce the most risk and who is responsible for follow-up.
By applying CIS Controls as a framework, structure emerges. Organisations work in phases on basic security and build from there towards more mature measures, tailored to their risk profile.
