Is the US scaling back its fight against Russian cyber threats under Trump?
The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa), a part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has reportedly been asked to revisit its priorities with a reduced focus on Russian cyber threats. The Guardian has reported that the Cisa analysts have been instructed not to track or report on Russian cyber activities, despite these being a major focus previously. The shift, outlined in a recent memorandum, has placed greater emphasis on China and domestic system protection while omitting any mention of Russia.
