4 Benefits of Joining the CIS OEM Partner Program
Save Your Organization Valuable Resources
As a member of the CIS OEM Partner Program, you can white label CIS-CAT Pro so that you can offer its secure configuration assessment and reporting capabilities to your customers. In the process, your customers receive access to a powerful tool for ensuring their conformance to the renowned CIS Benchmarks. Meanwhile, you save your enterprise the time and money of building and maintaining your own custom secure configuration assessment solution in the long run.
Save Your Customers Time and Money
Manual reviews of secure configurations can be painstaking and time-consuming for your customers. Not only that, but your customers must repeat these reviews often so that they can identify and correct configuration drift in a timely manner.
By integrating CIS-CAT Pro into your offering through the CIS OEM Partner Program, you can turn hours of manual configuration review into minutes for your customers. They save time; you get the credit.
Strengthen Your Value to Your Customers
CIS-CAT Pro comes with powerful, automated secure configuration assessment and reporting capabilities for helping your customers to securely configure their IT systems, software, networks, and cloud infrastructure. By integrating this tool into your offerings through the CIS OEM Partner Program, you can scan your customers’ systems in minutes and assess their conformance to the CIS Benchmarks, secure recommendations developed and maintained by a global community of IT professionals via consensus.
Add Credibility to Your Offerings
In joining the CIS OEM Partner Program, you receive CIS Benchmarks Certification for all CIS Benchmarks integrated into CIS-CAT Pro right out of the gate. This recognition adds credibility to your secure configuration standards and processes, helping you to build trust with existing and potential customers. It also saves you the time it would ordinarily take to submit your offering for review under the existing CIS Benchmarks Certification program.
