The president ordered a board to probe a massive Russian cyberattack. It never did.

The Biden administration’s Cyber Safety Review Board has been criticized for failing to investigate the SolarWinds cyberattack. The board’s lack of review into Microsoft’s unaddressed security issue, which was a key factor in the attack, is seen as particularly problematic. Critics suggest that the board’s reluctance to scrutinize government agencies’ role in preventing cyberattacks is hindering its effectiveness.
