NSA chief: No sharing of private data in cyber bill

Adm. Michael Rogers, who oversees both the National Security Agency and US Cyber Command, is trying to calm companies’ fears about new cybersecurity legislation, arguing that the government has no desire to collect people’s personal information. “We do not want privacy information. That will slow us down. That is not what the focus of cybersecurity is,” he said. At issue is the Cyber Information Sharing Act (CISA) which would provide protections to industry, allowing companies to share information with the government about cyber threats.
