On November 16, the
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Act of 2018
was
signed into law. The law rebrands the Department of Homeland
Security's main cybersecurity unit, the National Protection and
Programs Directorate as the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure
Security Agency ("CISA"). The law gives CISA the
responsibility to protect the United States' critical
infrastructure from physical and cyber threats and to coordinate
with government and private-sector organizations to do so. It
establishes three divisions in the new agency: Cybersecurity,
Infrastructure Security, and Emergency Communications.
