The U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA admitted it lacked a formal incident response playbook when a contractor exposed sensitive government credentials earlier this year. The agency had to develop its response strategy in real-time and is now working to improve its reporting channels for security researchers.
U.S. federal cybersecurity agency CISA said it did not have a prepared response plan for how it should handle a cybersecurity incident in May, after an investigative reporter notified the agency that a contractor had publicly exposed sensitive keys and credentials for accessing U.S. government systems.
