Cybereason, a global leader in cybersecurity, has introduced its 11 Essential Cybersecurity Controls, a practical framework designed from hands-on experience in managing more than 7,000 incident response cases. Created by Cybereason’s Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) team in collaboration with Intentional Cybersecurity, the framework translates lessons learned from thousands of investigations into actionable steps that organizations can take to reduce attack surfaces, enhance detection and response, minimize incident impact, and strengthen overall cyber resilience.

Unlike theoretical guidelines, these controls offer tested measures that have proven effective in real-world cyberattacks. Each control includes insights into common mistakes that security and risk teams should avoid, along with clear evidence of their impact in DFIR investigations. This practical, investigation-based perspective sets the framework apart from others in the industry. Additionally, the controls are aligned with widely recognized security standards such as CIS and NIST, helping organizations make informed investment decisions that go beyond mere audit compliance.

“Organizations are often overwhelmed by complex frameworks or distracted by the latest trends,” said Devon Ackerman, Global Head of DFIR at Cybereason. “The 11 Essential Controls are designed to provide security teams with clear, actionable guidance. These are measures that we know work because we’ve witnessed them stop attackers in their tracks and significantly improve security outcomes.”
