Peter Meijer: How can we prevent hackers from exploiting limitations on domestic intelligence collection? Wales points to Trump EO requiring KYC for cloud service providers. Sheridan says need more staffing in foreign locations and more accountability for hackers' ISPs. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Torres: Could we make ransom payment recovery the rule rather than the exception? Sheridan: “That's a great question. I think we could certainly be more proficient in it.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Ritchie Torres: Why are we implicitly telling Russia that it’s okay to attack institutions outside of the 16 critical infrastructure sectors? Silvers defers to NSC for information on the administration's conversations with Russia. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Malinowski: Are you saying that, without mandatory incident reporting, there’s no way to know whether our warnings are working? Silvers: “It's incomplete, but we do have some data, and it's more anecdotal, and we work with what we have.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Tom Malinowski becomes the second lawmaker to ask how Russian ransomware activity has changed since Biden asked Putin to crack down on it. Silvers again says they don't have enough data to identify any trends because they don't get enough hacking reports. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Jake LaTurner asks how the USG can create a clearly defined division of roles between various agencies. Both Sheridan and Silvers say that already exists. Silvers: “I think actually we are working quite well together.” — PolitiTweet.org

Wales says DHS' new Cyber Talent Management System (a cyber-focused alternative to the regular federal employment system) "had over 650 applicants across all grades and all specializations" as of this morning. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Wales: "Regardless of what is passed by Congress, we will work to ensure that FBI and other law enforcement partners and other federal agencies that need to have this information … they will get it as soon as possible." — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Andrew Garbarino asks about yesterday's Biden admin push to have FBI jointly run incident reporting program with CISA. Wales: “I don't see any of the changes that are being discussed changing CISA’s fundamental role as the lead for civilian cyber defense." — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Clarke: What improvements will you encourage grantees to prioritize? Wales: Getting to "a baseline level of cybersecurity" through MFA, reducing the number of privileged accounts, and closing vulns quickly. Also building a strong cyber workforce. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Yvette Clarke asks how CISA will ensure that states and locals spend their new cyber grant money effectively and in a coordinated way. Wales doesn't give specifics but says CISA's thinking about what priorities it wants them to focus on and how to help them do that. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Pfluger: "I'm very concerned about whether or not we're actually able to hold people accountable inside Russia, and we want to see and hear and understand the specifics of those instances and how that effect is … making headway to protect our businesses." — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
August Pfluger asks if ransomware represents an act of terror. Neither Silvers nor Wales touch that one, but both agree that ransomware is a national security threat, especially when it targets critical infrastructure. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Slotkin: What metrics will help you evaluate these trends? Silvers: “Some of the metrics include number of ransomware strikes, and we are actively looking at sources to collect that from ... I think one year out, we clearly will be much further along.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Slotkin presses Silvers for a clear answer, and he says, “I can't make a definitive assessment at this time.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Slotkin: Have Russian cyberattacks on CI gone up, gone down, or stayed the same since Biden and Putin met? Silvers: “It's difficult to assess because the vast majority of ransomware incidents are not reported to the government.” That’s why an incident reporting bill would help. — PolitiTweet.org

USSS' Jeremy Sheridan says Congress can help LE fight ransomware in three ways: 1. More "authorities and capabilities" to interdict laundered profits 2. Reauthorize Natl Computer Forensics Institute (for training state & local partners) 3. More support for intl LE cooperation — PolitiTweet.org

CISA's Brandon Wales says "every organization that wants to avoid being a victim of ransomware must invest in the practices that will keep their customers, their systems, and their data protected." — PolitiTweet.org

In what I believe is his first congressional testimony since taking office, DHS' Rob Silvers is reviewing the Biden administration's multi-pronged strategy for fighting ransomware (resilience, deterrence, and international cooperation). — PolitiTweet.org
