What are the CIS Benchmarks?

The Benchmarks are developed by CIS members and staff and are consensus based, best-practice security configurations for computers connected to the Internet.

What is the CIS Benchmark Score?

The Belarc Advisor has performed a security audit of your system using the CIS Level-I benchmark appropriate to your operating system. The result is a number between zero and ten that gives a measure of the vulnerability of your system to potential threats. The higher the number the less vulnerable your system.

How can you reduce your security vulnerability?

The CIS configurations are available as Microsoft security template files from the CIS.

Warning: Applying these security templates may cause some applications to stop working correctly. Back up your system prior to applying these security templates or apply the templates on a test system first.

There are dozens of them ! :o
