Outdated, manual processes for IT asset lifecycle management (ITALM) exposes organization to CISA BOD 23-01 compliance violations and increases security risks and operational inefficiencies that drive up costs.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has instructed federal, executive branch departments, and agencies to improve asset visibility and vulnerability detection on federal networks to safeguard federal information and information systems. Known as CISA binding operational directive (BOD) 23-01, it focuses on two areas: asset discovery and vulnerability enumeration. The directive provides stringent, recurring deadlines for both areas.

Interoperability among systems and manual processes for managing data (i.e., spreadsheets) makes meeting these deadlines extremely challenging and labor intensive.

ReadyWorks is a digital platform conductor. It collects, normalizes, and analyzes information from IT asset discovery and management tools, identifies security vulnerabilities, and orchestrates and automates workflows to quickly mitigate risks and ensure CISA BOD 23-01 compliance.

WITH READYWORKS:

icon-checkmark

Comply with the weekly automated asset discovery and on-demand asset-discovery requirements of CISA BOD 23-01 with a comprehensive, real-time view of yourentire IT estate.

icon-checkmark

Easily identify any vulnerabilities, such as outdated operating systems, unpatched software, or non-compliance to regulations by querying data to comply with the 14-day timeframe and take a prescribed action. For example, systems that have been identified as requiring a patch will be automatically added to a workflow to install the patch.
