State, Local, Tribal and Territorial (SLTT) Security Operations Center (SOC) | Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC) – Continuation and Supplement

The purpose of this supplement and continuation is to expedite building an automated and streamlined capacity to share cyber threat intelligence bi-directionally and collaboratively amongst the SLTT (most presently with the Elections Subsector) and DHS CISA, as well as provide a mechanism for rapid adoption and methods to integrate with local activities in the SLTT enterprise/environment that improve cyber security awareness and equip stakeholders to act in response to prioritized cyber threat intelligence shared within the threat intelligence platform. Furthermore, this supplement will expand exploration of cyber managed services (i.e. National Prevention Pilot, End-Point Detection and Response Pilot, Domain Blocking and Reporting) foremost in the Elections subsector, and in so doing will impact the capabilities to create a more robust cyber defense and information sharing environment for the entire SLTT sector.

DHS CISA will leverage this Cooperative Agreement award to advance SLTT cybersecurity risk management and to help build a healthy and resilient SLTT cyber ecosystem via automated collective community action. Successful execution of this agreement will focus on expanding SLTT sector interrelationships within the community using rapid rollout technology to enhance cyber threat intelligence exchange.

The priority is to provide a connective platform among the SLTT cyber coordinators for collaborative threat intelligence sharing. This enhanced technical model relies upon trusted SLTT collaboration, elastic infrastructure, managed security services and robust analytic orchestration and informed risk information to give cyber coordinators decision advantage, improve situational awareness and provide enhanced cyber defense
