What CIS Controls v8.1 Control 11: Data Recovery requires
CIS Controls v8.1 Control 11: Data Recovery. CIS Control 11 focuses on establishing and maintaining data recovery practices to restore in-scope enterprise assets to a pre-incident and trusted state. Control 11 is one of 18 CIS Controls in version 8.1 (revised June 2024) and is implemented through 5 Safeguards organized across CIS Implementation Groups IG1 (basic, applicable to all enterprises), IG2 (foundational, for resource-constrained enterprises with sensitive data), and IG3 (organizational, for mature enterprises with high-impact data). Each Safeguard maps to specific NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 controls per the CIS-NIST crosswalk and to NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 outcomes. Implementation evidence is required for SOC 2, FedRAMP, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and most cyber-insurance underwriting assessments. The deterministic workflow below provides the operational schema for verifying CIS Control 11 adoption in the organization.
