Center for Internet Security

CIS RAM v2.0 (Center for Internet Security® Risk Assessment Method) is an information security risk assessment method that helps enterprises plan and justify their implementation of CIS Critical Security Controls (CIS). Learn about the CIS RAM family of documents, a free tool, providing step-by-step instructions, examples, templates, and exercises for conducting a cyber risk assessment.

“The CIS RAM is a powerful tool to guide the prioritization and implementation of the CIS Controls, and complements their technical credibility with a sound business risk-decision process,” said Tony Sager, Senior Vice President and Chief Evangelist at CIS. “We see the CIS RAM as a method that enterprises of all maturity levels can use.”

Through an ongoing partnership, CIS RAM v2.0 was developed by HALOCK Security Labs with CIS. HALOCK had been providing CIS RAM methods for several years with a positive response from legal authorities, regulators, attorneys, business executives, and technical leaders. HALOCK and CIS collaborated to bring the methods to the public as CIS RAM v1.0 in 2018. CIS is a founding member of the DoCRA Council that maintains the risk analysis standard that CIS RAM v1.0 is built upon.

What you will learn:

  • How CIS RAM was updated to a family of documents starting with Core and Implementation Group 1 (IG1)
  • How CIS RAM automates risk analysis by using the VERIS Community Database
  • Why regulators are referencing CIS RAM to demonstrate reasonable security
  • How CIS RAM helps technology executives make business decisions
  • The basic steps IG1 organizations will take to conduct risk assessments using CIS RAM 2.0
