President Joe Biden is asking Congress to boost the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency budget by $110 million in 2021 to allow the agency to address a range of cybersecurity issues, following several high-profile incidents that have happened in the past six months. The increase is part of Biden s $1.52 trillion spending proposal for next year.
The funding request for CISA in fiscal 2022 amounts to $2.1 billion, which is $110 million more than the sum allocated in the previous fiscal. This would also build on the $650 million provided to CISA under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2020, or the COVID-19 stimulus package, which sought to better protect federal and civilian agency networks during the pandemic.

The Biden administration released a $1.5 trillion budget request for fiscal year 2022, which tilts spending more toward civilian, non-defense programs than had been the case in the Trump administration.
The topline or skinny budget contains $769 billion in non-defense spending and $753 billion in national defense programs. Non-defense spending is slated to rise 16% over 2021 levels, while defense spending remains basically flat at $753 billion.
The Defense Department budget request is $715 billion, with no separate budget line for the Overseas Contingency Account with the budget instead including war funding in the base budget – something touted as a significant reform in the budget request document from Shalanda Young, the acting director of the Office of Management and Budget.
