Control 13

Section titled “Control 13”

Control 13 is one of the 18 Controls of the CIS Controls, Version 8.1. CIS’s guide, at its v8.1.2 revision, lists 11 Safeguards under it, numbered 13.1 to 13.11.1 The schema uses those numbers as their identifiers. Of the Safeguards, none is in Implementation Group 1, 6 in Implementation Group 2 and all 11 in Implementation Group 3. Its Safeguards are about the asset classes Network (8) and Devices (3).

This bundle leaves out CIS’s name and description for the Control and CIS’s text for its Safeguards, because CIS licenses that text under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0; CIS’s guide gives them, and the guide’s reference says where to find it. The edition file gives the Control and each of its Safeguards a title and a description in the project’s own words, written from what each requires.2 For Control 13 they are:

  • Title: Watching and defending the network
  • Description: Processes and tools that monitor the enterprise’s network and users for threats and defend against them.
