The US Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act of 2015, which shields non-federal entities sharing cyber threat data from liability, faces expiration on September 30, 2026. While some industry groups push for its extension, participation in the Act’s Automated Indicator Sharing program has sharply declined, prompting the Trump administration to launch a new AI-powered alternative called Gold Eagle, pending legislative renewal.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Your liability shields for sharing cyber threat data end soon if the US Congress fails to act. Prepare for heightened legal risk and weigh integrating new federal AI-driven data sharing platforms like Gold Eagle.
