Version 8 of the CIS Critical Security Controls (CIS Controls) helps organizations keep up with modern systems and software, and can ultimately help improve your cybersecurity posture. The CIS Controls team recently worked with Trailhead – Salesforce’s online training platform – to create an introductory course on CIS Controls v8 Implementation Group 1 (IG1), also known as essential cyber hygiene. Not all organizations are able to implement any security framework wholesale. That’s why CIS prioritized the Controls and its supporting Safeguards for you; we always recommend starting with IG1.
