The most critical CIS Control for organizations largely depends on their specific security needs, but CIS Control 1: Inventory and Control of Enterprise Assets is often considered foundational.
Why is it the Most Critical?
You Can’t Protect What You Don’t Know – If an organization doesn’t have a clear inventory of its hardware and software, it’s impossible to secure them.
Minimizes Shadow IT Risks – Untracked devices and software can introduce vulnerabilities, making them prime targets for cyberattacks.
Forms the Basis for Other Security Measures – Many security strategies (patching, monitoring, incident response) rely on knowing what assets exist in the environment.
Reduces Attack Surface – Proper asset management ensures that unauthorized or outdated devices aren’t left vulnerable to exploitation.
However, some argue that CIS Control 5: Account Management is equally critical since managing privileged access is key to preventing data breaches.
