THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Washington’s 2025‑26 Emergency Management Council report calls for recurring state funding starting in FY2027 to restore capabilities lost with the end of statewide MS‑ISAC participation and other federal cyber programs. The recommendations include re‑establishing MS‑ISAC membership or an equivalent statewide threat intelligence and monitoring service, and creating long‑term state funding mechanisms to replace federal cyber grants like SLCGP.
This is still in the policy and planning phase with no vendor selected, and the report explicitly frames this as a gap that must be filled with state‑managed solutions. Vendors offering SOC services, threat intelligence platforms, statewide monitoring, and managed security for local governments and critical infrastructure can position themselves as options as the Governor’s Office, WaTech, and Legislature translate these recommendations into funded programs and procurements.
Recommendations also call for state successor programs when SLCGP and other federal streams diminish, with explicit focus on rural, Tribal, education, and critical infrastructure entities.
