The CIS Controls (CIS18) framework outlines 18 critical practices for securing IT systems and data. While many focus on policies and processes, several depend on accurate, continuously updated visibility of assets, software, and configurations.
BiitOps provides exactly that — delivering verified configuration and asset data to support compliance with controls such as Inventory and Control of Enterprise Assets (1), Inventory and Control of Software Assets (2), Secure Configuration (4), Account Management (5), and more.
An up-to-date asset list is a foundation of CIS18. With BiitOps, every server, client, and service is tracked automatically, with no manual updates. When an auditor asks for proof of your inventory, you can produce a detailed view instantly — including the properties that confirm ownership, location, and configuration.
Keeping track of what software is installed across your organisation can be a constant challenge. BiitOps gives you a full, searchable view of every application and version on each device. You can quickly identify unapproved or outdated software, filter by vendor or product, and take action to stay compliant with your approved software list.
CIS18 requires that systems follow secure configuration baselines. BiitOps lets you compare your current device configurations against your defined standards. If a system drifts from the baseline — such as a security setting being disabled — you can pinpoint the device, see exactly when the change happened, and take immediate corrective action.
From asset tracking to software control and configuration management, you can prove compliance faster, detect deviations sooner, and keep your environment aligned with security best practices.
