Easterly on CISA's messaging about its "Shields Up" posture, which began after the Ukraine invasion: "At the end of the day, Shields Up, given the highly complex, highly dynamic, dangerous threat environment that we live in … is really the new normal." — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Easterly: “One of the really positive things over the past couple of months is the amount of classified intelligence that has been declassified and provided to add to the richness of what our private sector colleagues have been [seeing].” — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

“We are very aware that building trust is hard and breaking trust is easy," Easterly says, describing how CISA is being deliberate about scaling up the JCDC. — PolitiTweet.org

Inglis notes how fragmentary cyber campaign analysis can be, and how that compels collaboration. “No one of us is probably going to see it for what it is. We'll have a shard, a shred, a hunch.” But there are some things that USG and industry can only discover together. — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Asked how they're institutionalizing better collaboration, Easterly points to new JCDC, which tightly integrates major private companies with federal agencies to exchange intel. "It's starting to build momentum," she says, "but most importantly, it's starting to build trust." — PolitiTweet.org

Easterly says that when she was at Morgan Stanley, "I did look at the government as feeling pretty disjointed and incoherent and not necessarily knowing how to interact effectively" with industry. Under Biden, she says, "I think we've tried to make a lot of progress on that." — PolitiTweet.org

Easterly: “Over the past year, all of us who've known each other for a very long time have come together to try to forge much greater cohesion and coherence across our mission sets..." — PolitiTweet.org

The big panel (at least for this cyber policy reporter) at #RSAC: @CISAJen, @ncdinglis, and @NSA_CSDirector. https://t.co/3fG1v1e1QG — PolitiTweet.org

@starwars @dave_filoni Happy birthday, Dave. I hope no adorable children corner you today with questions about Ezra's whereabouts. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting ethical dilemma. Can you separate the practical imperative of stopping hackers from disrupting undeniably vital fossil fuel infrastructure from the reality that doing so helps the fossil fuel industry prosper? — PolitiTweet.org

Also, Wright says, what differentiates one company from another isn't just the components in a product, whether food or software. Companies have other specialties and value-adds that competitors can't replicate. — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Friedman asks, how do you address competitiveness concerns about sharing SBOMs? @INL's Virginia Wright says consider food ingredient labels. Just because you have a list of what’s in a Twinkie doesn’t mean you can make a Twinkie. — PolitiTweet.org

@NSA_CSDirector @DAlperovitch @JumpforJoyce Joyce rejoices about Joyce — PolitiTweet.org

Caddy says what's exciting about SBOM is that it “gets us to those sub-tier suppliers" — the small companies that supply components to the more recognized OEMs — "in a way that no other methodologies used to.” — PolitiTweet.org

TSA sharing a bit more info about how they tried to address industry frustrations (https://t.co/Qt7f0YF5Kq) w/ modified pipeline cyber rules (https://t.co/Ph5nM1WztR) — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

DOE's Cheri Caddy says EO 14028 created "policy impetus to really move forward w/ making [SBOM] work.” She says it's crucial for helping ppl understand what code they're running. Govt ran into this problem after Kaspersky ban when some vendors didn't know if they were using it. — PolitiTweet.org

Good morning from #RSAC, where @samsabin923's exposing me as an RSA backpack completist. https://t.co/zXPaQvf9MJ I must have them all. But apparently, unlike in the past, this year's backpacks are only for paying attendees, not press. What ever happened to the First Amendment??? https://t.co/DHgxC8jAj6 — PolitiTweet.org

I couldn't talk about @obiwankenobi on our new @hothtakes episode without giving a shoutout to Corran Horn. I remember almost nothing about his adventures in the EU, but a fan's gotta pay his respects. https://t.co/z4AtzXeRXq — PolitiTweet.org

@aedwardslevy really cowabungled this pun opportunity — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Yes, our new @hothtakes episode about the first three episodes of @obiwankenobi is a Young Leia lovefest, but it's so much more than that. We also talk about the Tatooine mod parlor! @grace_segers and @byrdinator love it when I remind them about it. https://t.co/z4AtzWXh5S — PolitiTweet.org
