CISA’s Incident Reporting Rules: MSP Impact (EP 965)

CISA’s CIRCIA rulemaking could reshape how serious cyber incidents get reported across critical infrastructure—and MSPs are right in the middle of it. In this episode, Uncle Marv breaks down what’s in play, what’s unclear, and what you should be building now so you’re not scrambling when clients (or regulators) start asking questions. Understand the 72-hour incident reporting expectation and the 24-hour ransom payment reporting requirement.​ Learn why MSPs may be treated like critical infrastructure, not “just vendors.”​ Get a practical view of what CISA expects inside an incident report (timelines, IOCs, TTPs, impact, mitigation).​ Hear where CISA is questioning scope: sector-based vs. size-based thresholds, and what that could mean for you.​ Find the operational gaps you need to close (logging, evidence aggregation, documentation speed).
