CISA looks to recruit general infrastructure security experts rather than sector-focused advisers

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is shifting its hiring strategy to prioritize general infrastructure security experts over sector-specific advisers. The agency's acting chief indicated that the organization needs personnel with flexibility to adapt across different domains on a daily basis.

Why it matters: Critical infrastructure operators should understand CISA's changing staffing model may affect the depth and continuity of sector-specific guidance they receive on industrial control system (ICS) risks and compliance requirements.
