Automating the SANS 20 Critical Security Controls with QualysGuard
This paper describes how automating critical controls with QualysGuard can protect your network and IT assets with continuous security.
The SANS 20 Critical Security Controls are a prioritized, risk-based approach to cyber security. They are the result of a consensus process that involved a wide variety of cyber security professionals from government and industry, who were asked: “In practice, what works and where do you start?” The Critical Controls have become a blueprint to help Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and Chief Information Officers (CIOs) to deploy the most effective processes and tools to secure all their computer systems according to risk.
