The Center for Internet Security (CIS)
The Center for Internet Security (CIS) is a not-for-profit cooperative enterprise that helps organizations reduce the risk of business and e-commerce disruptions resulting from inadequate security configurations.
CIS members are developing and propagating the widespread application of Security Benchmarks through a global consensus process that brings together industry, government, academia and consultants. CIS Benchmarks enumerate the "When, Why, and How" aspects of technical security configurations across a wide range of operating system platforms and Internet software applications.
The benchmarks are available free of charge to the Internet community via this web site.
