The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is an agency of the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that is responsible for strengthening cybersecurity and infrastructure protection across all levels of government, coordinating cybersecurity programs with US states, and improving the government's cybersecurity protections against private and nation-state hackers. CISA's activities are a continuation of the National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD), and was established on 16 November 2018 when President Donald Trump signed into law the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Act of 2018.[1]
CISA Directors
In 2020, CISA created a website, titled Rumor Control, to rebut disinformation associated with the 2020 United States presidential election. On 12 November 2020, CISA issued a press release asserting, "There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised." On the same day, Director Christopher Krebs indicated that he expected to be dismissed from his post by the Trump administration. Krebs was subsequently fired by President Trump on 17 November 2020 via tweet for his comments regarding the security of the election.[2]
On 12 July 2021, the US Senate confirmed Jen Easterly by a Voice Vote, directly after the Senate returned from its July 4th recess. Easterly’s nomination had been reported favorably out of Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs on 16 June, but a floor vote had been reportedly held by Senator Rick Scott over broader national security concerns, until the President or Vice President had visited the southern border with Mexico. Upon confirmation, she became the second Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.[3]
