In today's digital landscape, organizations face an unprecedented volume of cybersecurity alerts on a daily basis. While these alerts are crucial for maintaining security, their sheer volume can overwhelm security teams, a phenomenon known as alert fatigue. This issue not only hampers the effectiveness of cybersecurity measures but also poses significant risks to business operations, financial performance, and organizational reputation. As CEOs and CFOs, understanding and addressing this challenge is imperative to safeguard your organization's assets and ensure sustained growth.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) announced that it has transitioned to a new model to better equip state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) governments to strengthen shared responsibility nationwide. CISA is supporting our SLTT partners with access to grant funding, no-cost tools, and cybersecurity expertise to be resilient and lead at the local level.
CISA’s cooperative agreement with the Center for Internet Security (CIS) will reach its planned end on September 30, 2025. This transition reflects CISA’s mission to strengthen accountability, maximize impact, and empower SLTT partners to defend today and secure tomorrow.
Support for SLTTs includes:
This initiative reinforces CISA’s role as the nation’s leading cyber defense agency, protecting critical infrastructure, enabling secure communications, and empowering partners on the front lines of America’s cybersecurity.

CISA has added five new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.
These types of vulnerabilities are frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and poses significant risks to the federal enterprise.
Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities established the KEV Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet for more information.
Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.
CISA, in collaboration with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the United Kingdom’s National Cyber Security Centre, and other international partners has released new joint cybersecurity guidance: Creating and Maintaining a Definitive View of Your Operational Technology (OT) Architecture.
Building on the recent Foundations for OT Cybersecurity: Asset Inventory Guidance for Owners and Operators, this guidance explains how organizations can leverage data sources, such as asset inventories and manufacturer-provided resources like software bill of materials to establish and maintain an accurate, up-to-date view of their OT systems.
A definitive OT record enables organizations to conduct more comprehensive risk assessments, prioritize critical and exposed systems, and implement appropriate security controls. The guidance also addresses managing third-party risks, securing OT information, and designing effective architectural controls.
Key recommendations include:
Organizations are encouraged to use this guidance to strengthen their OT security posture and reduce risks. For additional details, review the full guidance: Creating and Maintaining a Definitive View of Your Operational Technology (OT) Architecture
