A new survey from the SANS Institute claims there is a lack of awareness when it comes to the Department of Homeland Security’s Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation Program, with increased staffing, training and word-of-mouth needed for meaningful progress.
The survey, which was given to federal, state and local security professionals, found that the only people with working knowledge of the program were chief information officers, chief information security officers, chief technology officers or other high-level security directors.
“Although the formal DHS outreach to CIOs and CSOs at the top of federal government departments and agencies has been extensive, the ‘trickle down’ of information to security administrators, analysts and operations staff has been limited,” the report reads.
