Trump administration dismisses members of all DHS advisory panels, including CSRB

DHS removed all members of its advisory committees—including the Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) and CISA’s Cybersecurity Advisory Committee (CSAC)—as part of a reorganization led by acting Secretary Benjamine Huffman, prompting concerns about delays to the CSRB’s investigation into the China-linked Salt Typhoon telecom intrusions. The move drew partisan responses, with supporters citing the need to realign priorities and critics warning of operational impacts, while former officials and witnesses renewed calls to codify the CSRB and make it independent of DHS.
