Coristine, after his internship at Neuralink, has worked his way through various federal agencies as a DOGE operative. He has been tracked at the General Services Administration (GSA), the Office of Personnel Management, the State Department, and FEMA. His stint at the State's Bureau of Diplomatic Technology potentially gave him access to sensitive information about diplomats and intelligence sources globally. He has now moved to CISA, listed as a senior advisor. Coristine was briefly associated with Path Network, a firm known for hiring reformed blackhat hackers. His account was linked with a cybercriminal community, raising questions about his role at CISA.
Kyle Schutt, another DOGE engineer, has joined Coristine at CISA. Schutt was previously with the GSA and worked on the launch of WinRed, a Republican fundraising platform. His role at CISA and potential access to sensitive information is yet to be clarified.
CISA, responsible for defending civilian federal government networks and working closely with critical infrastructure owners, stores sensitive and critical security information. The level of access Coristine and Schutt might have to this data is unclear. Given Coristine's past associations, there are concerns about potential risks to cybersecurity.
