"it's almost fractured by design, because we haven't quite stitched it together."
"I don't know anybody who opposes its extension, and yet it has lapsed," Inglis said. "I'm hoping the activities that have taken place under CISA 2015 have been sufficiently valuable to all sides that sharing will continue - to at least some degree - until the legislation can be put back in place."
"We need every living soul on the front lines"
Federal cyberdefense structures are fragmented and lack full integration, reducing national readiness. A federal shutdown coincided with the lapse of the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act (CISA 2015), the end of related state and local funding, and reported furloughs impacting a majority of CISA staff. The lapse removes statutory protections and could reduce private-sector incentive to share threat indicators with the government. Reduced personnel and paused programs threaten defenses for government networks and critical infrastructure. Rising threats from nation-states and criminal actors increase urgency for restored legal frameworks, funding, and coordinated information-sharing mechanisms.
