Nick Andersen has been acting director since February of this year, and his 210-day acting limit is running out. Naming a nominee would pause that clock, but none has materialised since Sean Plankey withdrew in April and Markwayne Mullin said in June a replacement was imminent. Reports suggest the administration may retitle Andersen as senior official performing the duties of CISA director. The article contains no CVEs or specific defensive actions.
