CISA clarified that it has not laid off its entire Red Team, countering claims by former employee Christopher Chenoweth. The agency stated that it terminated certain contracts for efficiency, not personnel. Chenoweth asserted that on February 28, his entire red team faced terminations along with support roles, totaling over 100 individuals. CISA emphasized its commitment to fiscal governance and resource allocation efficiency, noting that its red teams continue their operational duties despite the contract changes.
Contrary to inaccurate reporting, CISA has not 'laid off' our Red Team. CISA has taken action to terminate contracts...to ensure that we have the capabilities that we need.
As good stewards of the taxpayer dollar...CISA regularly reviews contracts across the agency to ensure...we are allocating resources in ways that make the most impact.
