Eric Goldstein, the executive assistant director for cybersecurity at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), has warned that proposed budget cuts, such as the proposed 25% reduction, could have “catastrophic” consequences. During a House Homeland Security subcommittee hearing, Goldstein explained that these cuts would greatly diminish CISA’s ability to monitor threats on federal networks, leaving them more vulnerable to cyberattacks from adversaries like Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea. CISA officials have repeatedly stressed that budget reductions would severely hinder their work, impacting the agency’s mission in critical ways.
