A penalty from substitute Barry Wilson was enough to give Inverness a victory that moves them to within four points of First Division leaders Clyde.
Brechin striker Chris Templeman's shot struck the post and Caley Thistle midfielder Richie Hart's drive went just wide in a lacklustre affair.
But Jamie Smith and Scott McCulloch sandwiched David Bingham and strike partner Wilson scored from the spot.
Paul Deas forced a good save from Mark Brown, but Inverness held on to win.
