CISA

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) faced a tumultuous period marked by significant breaches, including the Salt Typhoon espionage campaign linked to Beijing, which compromised American telecoms, collecting sensitive data such as call logs, recordings, and potential location information. The largest hack in US telecom history occurred under the leadership of Jen Easterly, who was not asked to stay post-Inauguration Day. Her departure coincided with demands for CISA to become 'smaller' and 'more nimble' and the dismissal of the Cyber Safety Review Board members who were investigating the breaches, potentially jeopardizing the agency’s future and national cybersecurity.
