WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Homeland Security Subcommittee on Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Chairman Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) announced a hearing next Wednesday, October 25, 2023, at 2:00 PM ET to evaluate federal cybersecurity governance and efforts, specifically by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD).
 
“Our nation is increasingly facing elusive threat actor tactics in cyberspace, so Congress must ensure the federal government has the innovative tools, clear objectives, and interagency partnerships needed to combat those evolving threats,” Chairman Garbarino said. “CISA has a broad and important operational role in ensuring cybersecurity resilience across federal networks, and ONCD is a key leader in developing cyber policy and implementing the National Cybersecurity Strategy.
