The U.S. Senate on Monday unanimously confirmed Jen Easterly as director of the Department of Homeland Securityâs Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).
The Senate approval came as the administration of President Joe Biden was under increased pressure to react to a series of ransomware attacks that experts and intelligence officials blamed on Russian hackers.
Easterly previously served as the deputy for counterterrorism at the National Security Agency, and as the senior director for counterterrorism on the White House National Security Council under former President Barack Obama.
Before the Senate approved Easterlyâs nomination through unanimous consent, Senator Gary Peters, Democrat of Michigan who chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, expressed frustration that the nominee, who sailed through her confirmation hearing last month, was not confirmed earlier.

Now, authorities have arrested a Haitian-born Florida resident who they say acted as a middleman between the alleged assassins and the unnamed masterminds. The man, identified as 63-year-old Christian Emmanuel Sanon, was accompanied by several of the suspected assailants when he allegedly flew to the Caribbean island nation on a private jet in early June, according to Leon Charles, head of the Haitian National Police. Sanon had allegedly hired the Colombian nationals through a Florida-based Venezuelan security firm to protect him and his business. But they later received a new mission: arrest the president of Haiti, according to Charles.
