Trump nominates Palantir CISO Michael LoSapio to lead CISA
President Donald Trump nominated Michael LoSapio, chief information security officer at Palantir, to be director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), a post vacant without a Senate-confirmed director since January 2025 (nextgov.com). The previous nominee, Sean Plankey, stalled in the Senate and withdrew in April. Democrats, who are set to take control of Congress, have scrutinized Palantir over its work with the Department of Homeland Security, and the company denies aiding mass surveillance of immigrants. Republicans hold the Senate until January, and the nomination faces a crowded calendar before year's end (nextgov.com). Acting director Nick Andersen has led the agency since February, and a nominee can pause the statutory clock limiting how long he may stay in the acting role.
