Announcing Free MS-ISAC Services for California Public Sector Entities!

Great news! The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES), via the California Cybersecurity Integration Center (Cal-CSIC), is pleased to share with their Homeland Security Senior Advisory Committee (HSAC) that they are providing FREE enrollment in the Multi-State Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MS-ISAC) for California public entities, to include state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) partners. This statewide sponsorship reflects Cal OES’s commitment to helping organizations like yours strengthen defenses, adopt proven best practices, and stay connected to a trusted cybersecurity community. Cal OES strongly encourages every eligible California SLTT partner to enroll. 

MS-ISAC is designed to assist members to strengthen their cybersecurity postures, through:  
• Cyber threat intelligence sharing; 
• Early warning of potential cyber incidents, incident response, and forensic analysis; 
• A 24/7 security operations center; and  
• MemberConnect, a communication platform that allows the enrolled California entities to share information, integrate, and coordinate on any and all cybersecurity related matters.   

This statewide sponsorship ensures you have the resources and community needed to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats.
