Overview

The Center for Internet Security (CIS) offers the Cybersecurity Assistance Services Program to help MS-ISAC and EI-ISAC members enhance their cyber posture by providing them with the expertise they need to increase their cyber maturity and decrease their cyber risks. This program offers multiple no-cost services exclusively to MS-ISAC and EI-ISAC members.

The Community Advisory Service and Member Advisory Service are for groups of members or individual members who want help with a cybersecurity challenge or want to learn more about a cybersecurity topic.  Other services help members accomplish cyber-related tasks, such as performing a security self-assessment like the Nationwide Cybersecurity Review (NCSR), or developing a security policy.  All our services are tailored for the unique challenges faced by State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) organizations.
