Turning Threat Intelligence Into Action: CIS Controls Insights from the 2026 Verizon DBIR

The Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) is one of the most trusted sources of cybersecurity threat intelligence in the industry, drawing on real‑world data from thousands of incidents and breaches worldwide. Each year, its findings offer organizations a clearer picture of the evolving threat landscape and a sharper sense of where their defenses need to be strongest. 

In this webinar, the CIS Controls and Verizon DBIR teams come together to explore key findings from the latest report and examine how the CIS Critical Security Controls (CIS Controls) map directly to the attack patterns, breach pathways, and threat actors driving today’s most significant incidents. From system intrusion and social engineering to basic web application attacks, we’ll discuss how prioritized, evidence‑based safeguards can help organizations of all sizes and sectors reduce risk and strengthen cyber hygiene. 

Attendees will also hear from the Multi‑State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS‑ISAC) on how shared threat intelligence from state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) government networks enriches the DBIR’s findings, and what those insights mean for defenders across both the public and private sectors. 

Join us to learn how to translate the DBIR’s data into actionable steps your organization can take today.
