CISA official calls on lawmakers to extend cyber info-sharing law

A senior CISA official urged Congress to renew the 2015 Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act before its impending expiration, citing the importance of stable legal frameworks for public-private threat intelligence sharing. With competing House and Senate reauthorization efforts and limited time before the deadline, a short-term extension via a funding bill is under consideration, while CISA expects information sharing to continue within existing legal bounds.
