Agencies must demonstrate 70–95% IT/OT/IoT asset capture across levels 1–4, with level 1 due 120 days and level 3 due 321 days after CISA publishes the logging reference architecture. Because overall maturity is scored at the lowest-performing element, incomplete asset inventories block all progress. OT and IoT devices are explicitly in scope, making passive discovery tools essential. Tenable positions its CDM-approved platform as the solution for building authoritative inventories, safe OT scanning, and AI-driven risk prioritization to help agencies meet the aggressive deadlines. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
