A nonprofit organization formed in 2000, the Center for Internet Security (CIS) helps people, businesses, and governments protect themselves against pervasive cyber threats. The CIS is headquartered in East Greenbush, New York, and includes large corporations, government agencies, and academic institutions as members.
How it Works
The Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) is the central cybersecurity resource for U.S. State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) governments. Operated by the Center for Internet Security (CIS), it is the designated ISAC for non-federal public agencies.
- 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC): Round-the-clock monitoring, analysis, and incident support sized for agencies that could never staff one alone.
- Threat intelligence and advisories: Curated alerts on vulnerabilities and active campaigns targeting government networks.
- Incident response: Hands-on assistance when a member is breached, including forensics support.
- Network defense services: Albert network monitoring sensors and Malicious Domain Blocking and Reporting for member networks.
