You probably aren't tracking CVEs for your building's IoT devices.
Most organizations don't. It's complex, time-consuming, requires expertise.
But here's what you should be asking:
"Is a critical vulnerability affecting my HVAC controller? My access control sensor? My energy management system?"
If you don't know the answer, you're operating blind.
SBCGA-DISCLOSE starts simple:
1. Inventory your devices
2. Subscribe to CVE feeds for those devices (NIST NVD, vendor advisories)
3. Create a simple vulnerability register
4. When CVEs are announced, assess impact on YOUR devices
5. Determine if patching is feasible
This is governance, not rocket science.
Week 1: Know what you have
Week 2: Set up CVE notifications
Month 1: Create your first vulnerability register
Month 2+: Maintain it and use it
Your building's security depends on knowing what's vulnerable and managing it systematically.
Start with an audit. Know what you have. Then build from there.
AC-146 + SBCGA will show you how.
