Trump’s pick to run US cyber agency CISA asks to drop out

Sean Plankey, Trump's pick to run CISA, has asked to withdraw his name from consideration due to tumultuous temporary leadership. This development is significant as CISA requires stable leadership to effectively address cybersecurity threats. The agency has been without a permanent director since 2021. Plankey's withdrawal leaves CISA without a confirmed leader. The agency's stability is crucial for national cybersecurity.
