Security Best Practices
Build Stronger Security From the Foundation Up
Strong cybersecurity depends on consistently implementing fundamental controls.
The IBACTP® Security Best Practices Center provides practical guidance for reducing preventable cybersecurity risk across people, processes, technology, and governance.
Identity & Access Management
Identity is the primary security boundary. Strong authentication, least privilege, and lifecycle controls prevent credential theft and unauthorized access.
Essential IAM controls include:
- Phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA)
- Principle of least privilege and zero standing access
- Privileged Access Management (PAM) with session auditing
- Role-based access control (RBAC) and automated offboarding
- Single sign-on (SSO) with conditional access evaluation
- Centralized service account governance and credential rotation
Review IAM Guidance
Vulnerability & Patch Management
A continuous, risk-based vulnerability management lifecycle prevents adversaries from exploiting known software and system flaws.
Six-stage lifecycle & priorities:
- 1. Discover & Catalog — Comprehensive inventory of all software and infrastructure assets
- 2. Assess & Scan — Automated vulnerability discovery across internal and perimeter systems
- 3. Prioritize — Risk-informed ranking driven by CISA KEV active exploitation and CVSS metrics
