MS-ISAC Services

Membership Overview

The Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center® (MS-ISAC®) has been providing critical cybersecurity services and resources to U.S State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) governments for more than two decades. Historically supported by Congressional appropriations through a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cooperative Agreement (CA), recent federal funding reductions have put many of those core services in jeopardy.

The MS-ISAC Fee-Based Membership model ensures continuity of critical cybersecurity services your organization depends on, regardless of federal funding fluctuations, providing membership tiers designed to fit your size, budget, and unique needs.

As an SLTT organization, you are on the frontline of defense against cyber threats, and the MS-ISAC equips your organization with a robust cyber defense ecosystem to stay protected that cannot be replicated by commercial vendors or other government programs.

For California, the Malicious Domain Blocking and Reporting (MDBR) service has been effective as an additional source of threat intelligence. This capability adds an additional element of automation in our security operations processes and playbooks, resulting in greater efficiencies. The preventive blocking and reporting provides metrics on true positive and high-fidelity events, allowing our internal teams to focus on more sophisticated attacks.”
