Ralph Norman asked how Inglis and Easterly are dealing with unknown people coming across our Southern border. Inglis valiantly tried to turn it into a cyber question (analogizing to foreign hackers), but Norman brought it back to literal border security. At a cyber hearing. — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Ralph Norman asks if the U.S. would be able to prevent the Colonial Pipeline hack if it happened today. Inglis says "we're in a much better position to detect it, if not deter it," but says long-term "lack of investment" by CI operators "won't be turned around in a fortnight." — PolitiTweet.org

Higgins: “Thank you for your answer. In my opinion, we need to have a lightning-fast cyber counterstrike. There needs to be immediate consequences. … I encourage my colleagues to support a very proactive and aggressive cyber counterstrike as we face these ongoing attacks.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Inglis: I agree that many people think "we're falling further behind" in this fight, but “the set of tools we should bring to bear is considerably larger than simply finding and shooting at them using cyber activities in and through cyberspace.” Resilience, prosecutions, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Clay Higgins asks Inglis: Can the U.S. launch an effective “cyber counterstrike” against cyber criminals? “Why are we not lighting these criminals up?” — PolitiTweet.org

FASC has to be reauthorized in 2023. Garbarino wants to know if its structure should be changed. Inglis: "I do believe that it should be sustained past fiscal year 23. We will come back to you to tell you what refinements we think are necessary.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Garbarino asks about the status of the Federal Acquisition Security Council, which hasn't done much since being authorized in 2018. Inglis says FASC leadership is in place & has "a solid agenda." "We have every expectation that we'll make significant progress in the time ahead." — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Easterly on staffing: "We're getting there, but not fast enough, in my view. So we're going to figure out how to fix the current process, and I may come back to you and ask for your help if I need it." — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Andrew Garbarino asks about staffing. Easterly: We’ve reduced by 13 percent the number of days that it takes to hire someone, “but it’s still way too long, it’s over 200.” “But we are making progress.” They’ve already hired 500-ish people this year, compared w/ 200-ish last yr. — PolitiTweet.org

Katko: Can you discuss CISA’s approach to the most critical of critical infrastructure? Easterly: We’re developing a list of “primary systemically important entities” and expect it to include “about 150 to 200 entities." (Katko has a bill to codify this prioritization work.) — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Easterly: “If we can't get information to network defenders in a timely way that allows them to use that information and that's relevant and actionable, there's really no point in sharing information. So we are looking to change that paradigm.” — PolitiTweet.org
Eric Geller @ericgeller
Katko: How are you working to share more useful information with the companies share information with you? Easterly: JCDC creates centralized place for real-time conversations and accountability. We're already sharing back info from govt sources + cloud providers & cyber firms. — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller
