CISA Releases New Public Version of CDM Data Model Document

Today, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released an updated public version of the Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Data Model Document. Version 5.0.1 aligns with fiscal year 2023 Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA) metrics.

The CDM Data Model Document provides a comprehensive description of a common data schema to ensure that prescribed diagnostic activities within CDM solutions are consistent across all participating federal agencies. Agencies leverage the common data schema to accomplish these critical objectives: 

• Reduce agency threat surface.
• Increase visibility into the federal cybersecurity posture.
• Improve federal cybersecurity response capabilities.
• Streamline FISMA reporting.

Vendors also can benefit from the CDM Data Model Document.
