CSRB’s Scathing Microsoft Report: Will Companies Still Cooperate?
CISA director Jen Easterly says the Cybersecurity Safety Review Board “is not afraid to say when something is amiss” after a scathing Microsoft report. Despite the criticism, Easterly hopes companies will continue to cooperate with the CSRB in future probes.
Hot Take:
When you have the CISA director throwing shade at your “inadequate security culture,” you know it’s time to get your cybersecurity house in order. Microsoft might be the “most important company out there,” but even the big players can’t dodge accountability. Grab your popcorn, folks; this cybersecurity drama is just heating up!
Key Points:
- CSRB’s harsh report on Microsoft’s security failings raises questions about future corporate cooperation.
- Microsoft voluntarily collaborated with the CSRB despite having no legal obligation to do so.
- CSRB lacks congressional authority and subpoena power, making future investigations reliant on voluntary cooperation.
- Jen Easterly praised Microsoft and its CEO for their transparency and proactive measures post-report.
- CISA’s Secure by Design pledge aims to reduce vulnerabilities by encouraging secure development practices among vendors.
