How Redeemer Cyber Helps Shape the CIS Microsoft 365 Benchmark

Cutting edge cybersecurity

At Redeemer Cyber, we don’t just follow cybersecurity best practices—we help shape them. Our work with the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Microsoft 365 Security Benchmark reflects our commitment to advancing the standards that organizations worldwide depend on to secure their environments.

Grounded in Real-World Experience

Our founder has performed dozens of Microsoft 365 security assessments and led many follow-up remediation projects over the years. These engagements have provided unique insight into the real-world challenges organizations face when securing Microsoft 365 tenants.

Giving Back to the Community

We believe that expertise shouldn’t stop at client projects. Our founder is passionate about giving back to the cybersecurity community—using his experience to benefit not only Redeemer Cyber’s clients but the entire industry.

Official Contributor to the CIS M365 Benchmark

That commitment has led to significant contributions to the CIS Microsoft 365 Security Benchmark. Over the years, our founder has submitted more than 60 accepted tickets to CIS—ranging from corrections and enhancements to refinements in control impacts and rationale.

This dedication earned him recognition as one of just 15 officially credited contributors to the CIS M365 Benchmark, trusted worldwide by businesses, governments, and non-profits.

Driving New Standards Forward

One of the most exciting contributions was the successful proposal and lobbying for a new security control (“2.1.15 Ensure anti-spam message limits are in place”), which will appear in the next release of the CIS M365 Benchmark. This addition strengthens protections around Microsoft 365 environments and demonstrates Redeemer Cyber’s leadership in advancing the benchmark itself. The significance of this control was described in one of our recent blog posts Story Time: How User App Consent Crippled a Business (Yes, This Really Happened)
