# CISA Launches Shared Federal SIEM

In December 2025, CISA launched a no-cost, shared, cloud-hosted SIEM-as-a-Service for Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies through its Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation program. The service consolidates security telemetry on FedRAMP-authorized Elastic Cloud and is intended to improve cross-agency visibility and help agencies address OMB M-26-14 logging requirements. The announcement describes no open solicitation or contract award, but points to potential supporting work as agencies onboard and integrate telemetry and operate cybersecurity services.

- Agencies and contractors supporting federal civilian cybersecurity can assess needs for onboarding, telemetry integration, and operational support related to the shared service.
- Elastic Cloud’s FedRAMP authorization and the service’s shared model are relevant to firms positioning cloud security and SIEM capabilities for federal civilian agencies.
- The initiative is tied to CISA’s CDM program and OMB M-26-14 logging requirements; the announcement does not provide a solicitation, contract value, or procurement timeline.
