CISA’s proactive approach to cybersecurity is highlighted, focusing on two directives: BOD 22-01, which mandates agencies to consult the “Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog,” and BOD 23-01, aimed at improving agency asset visibility and vulnerability detection. These directives emphasize asset discovery and vulnerability enumeration as crucial activities for risk reduction. CyCognito’s platform aligns with these directives by automating discovery, contextualizing assets, and prioritizing vulnerabilities based on attacker perspective, enabling organizations to efficiently close gaps in their attack surface management.
