E082 - Brian Rants about CISA
In this solo episode, Brian breaks down the role of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) — the federal agency responsible for protecting U.S. critical infrastructure and leading cyber defense efforts across government.
From securing elections and the .gov domain to promoting “Secure by Design” software and coordinating with private industry, CISA’s reach is broader than most people realize. Brian also explores the political controversy surrounding its leadership and why its future matters for both public and private sector security.
Cybersecurity isn’t just a government problem — it’s an everyone problem.
