Beyond Baselines: Customizing Configuration Compliance for Industry-Specific Threat Models
Santosh Kumar Kande
Abstract: Configuration compliance ensures that systems are configured to align with established security standards, such as CIS Benchmarks, NIST SP 800-53, or ISO 27001. However, a one-size-fits-all approach often falls short in addressing the nuanced threats that different industries face. This paper explores the limitations of standard baselines and advocates for a customized approach to configuration compliance, tailored to industry-specific threat models. Through case studies and best practices, we demonstrate how organizations can align configuration standards with their unique risk profiles, enhancing overall security posture.
