This is a big loss for CISA, which hired Masterson in 2018 after House Speaker Paul Ryan blocked his reappointment to the Election Assistance Commission.
Election officials widely praised Masterson for helping improve the relationship between them and the federal government.

.@mastersonmv confirms to me that he is leaving CISA, as first reported by @dnvolz.
Masterson, a senior cyber adviser working on election security at CISA, is leaving to join @stanfordio.

Deleted this tweet.

I rechecked my notes from conversations with current and former CISA officials and realized I'd misinterpreted them.
My apologies.
