If I'm energy, I need to call the Department of Energy. It gets very complex and becomes a drain of resources when you think about, "Okay, I need to call the FBI. But from the private sector perspective, it gets really confusing. There's a lot of value for a range of different agencies to engage with the private sector. Aren't you going to have CISA make those notifications to the private sector?" It's another one of those really interesting policy discussions from the government perspective. We're going to inform."Ĭhris: I remember that and I said, "Well, wait a second. We need to inform CISA and let them know what we're seeing." I said, "We also need to inform the industry of what's going on as the IC." And I got these two people just whipped their heads around and said, "CISA is the IC." I backed up, I was like, "Okay. Someone said, "We're working with CISA on this. We were going through this ransomware exercise and what you would do next. There was a big ransomware scenario, but it was a lot of fun.Įric: I was in the intelligence group. I had the honor to serve as her national security advisor.

That's actually a point of discussion within the policy circles and on the hill whether CISA should become part of the IC. We would have some attachments or detailees. CISA and DHS are part of the intelligence community down there.Ĭhris: There is a part of DHS, the intelligence analysis function, but CISA is not a member of the intelligence community. What did CISA say?"Ĭhris: Try to have some sort of consistency across government agencies.Įric: We've got the DoD and then the Homeland piece. Chris, is it CISA or CISA?Ĭhris: I try not to be pedantic about this, but, as the person that came up with the name, it’s CISA.Įric: I get confused because you hear it both ways and I'm like, "Wait a minute. Welcome back to the podcast, Chris.Ĭhris: Good to see you again, saw you a few weeks ago down in Florida or was that Georgia?Įric: Yes, it’s a brief conference. He served as the first director of the Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency known as CISA. Rachel: We have Chris Krebs who's a founding partner of the Krebs Stamos Group.
