Homeland Security boss vows to put CISA back 'on mission'
Briefly

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has announced an assessment of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) following criticism about its engagement in disinformation efforts. Noem emphasized the need to realign CISA with its core mission and hinted at potential budget and staffing cuts as part of this effort. Critics, including members of Congress, have expressed concern over these changes, fearing they undermine the agency's efficacy. Noem believes these reforms will enhance CISA’s capabilities to protect against cyber threats rather than diminish them.
CISA's job is to "hunt and harden our systems," but instead, it got involved in misinformation/disinformation campaigns, according to Secretary Noem.
Reforms and efficiencies at CISA are necessary to realign it with its intended mission, as stated by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
