The tumultuous year under the Trump administration continues for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), as many senior officials across the agency have recently left, or will soon be leaving, according to a report by The Washington Post and cited by Cybersecurity Drive. These departures punctuate numerous setbacks the agency has faced since Trump took office, including being told to halt its election security efforts and almost lapsing the CVE program that some of the world’s biggest companies rely on to track cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
“It feels like the wrong people are leaving,” said a second CISA employee, who insisted on anonymity to speak freely. “All of these departures make it feel like people are leaving the mission and creating a vacuum.”
