Senator Ron Wyden has placed a hold on Sean Plankey's nomination as head of CISA, citing a cover-up of security flaws in U.S. telecommunications. He demands the release of a 2022 unclassified report detailing these weaknesses, which he claims the public has a right to see. Wyden's concerns were amplified by recent hacks by Chinese spies that exploited telecom vulnerabilities. He proposed legislation to enforce cybersecurity standards in the industry, highlighting that federal oversight remains inadequate. The White House has yet to comment on the senator's actions.
