legal protections to companies for sharing cyber threat information with the federal government and each other, the staff director&nbsp; for Democrats on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee said Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The 2015 Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Act is <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/cybersecurity-information-sharing-law-expiring-congress-renewal\/\">due to lapse<\/a> at the end of September. It provides defenses against lawsuits for companies sharing threat information, antitrust law exemptions and more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProviding them with the liability shield that was created about a decade ago is critical to allow real-time information sharing with the federal government,\u201d David Weinberg said at the FedScoop-produced Elastic Public Sector Summit in Washington, D.C. \u201cWe want to make sure that critical infrastructure operators are forthcoming when\u201d cyberattacks happen.<\/p>\n<p>The chairman of the panel, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., opposed the law in 2015 over privacy concerns. But its renewal has bipartisan support among some leaders of the committees that might vet the bill, including the House Homeland Security Committee and the House and Senate intelligence panels.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Weinberg also advocated for the panel to pass stalled legislation that seeks to address a tangle of sometimes-conflicting cybersecurity regulations by creating a committee of executive branch officials to examine it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe think this is a good starting point [to] create sort of an interagency committee on regulatory harmonization for cybersecurity and make sure that we are cracking down on duplicative or conflicting regulations,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd they would make recommendations back to Congress for us to try to do a more sweeping effort to harmonize across cybersecurity, from cyber hygiene to more prescriptive regulations that critical infrastructure operators face.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/senate-homeland-security-streamlining-cyber-regulations-bills\/\">approved the bill<\/a> by a vote of 10-1 last year, but never advanced further. Paul voted against the legislation.<\/p>\n<p>Committee Democrats are also looking to make sure the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency isn\u2019t damaged. Paul has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2024\/11\/14\/rand-paul-kneecap-cisa-00189698\">a staunch critic<\/a> of the agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019re kind of in a \u2018do no harm\u2019 posture,\u201d Weinberg said. \u201cWe are trying to make sure CISA matures, we get in place good nominees and understand the mission there and across the federal government in terms of our cybersecurity needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Trump administration last week <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/sean-plankey-cisa-nomination\/\">nominated Sean Plankey<\/a> to lead CISA.<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"7.7216117216117\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/congress-should-re-up-2015-information-sharing-law-top-hill-staffer-says-1.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Tim Starks\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"author-card__details\" readability=\"10.901098901099\">\n<h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by Tim Starks<\/h4>\n<p> Tim Starks is senior reporter at CyberScoop.
