President Trump has announced Sean Plankey as his pick for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Director.
Prior to the 2024 election, Plankey predicted a second Trump presidency would bring "more pointed measures at [our] adversaries."
Plankey has previous experience as Principle Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Office of Cybersecurity, Energy, Security, and Emergency Response (CESER).
CISA was created by President Trump in 2018 to protect government agencies and US infrastructure from cyberattacks and digital threats.
