FCC Names John Schanz Chair Of The CSRIC

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler announced the appointment of John Schanz as the Chair of the Communications Security, Reliability and Interoperability Council (CSRIC).

Chairman Wheeler said, “I would like to thank Larissa Herda for her leadership as Chair through the first years of CSRIC IV’s term. Our Nation’s networks are undergoing remarkable change over a relatively short span of time, and Larissa’s leadership of CSRIC during this time has been invaluable. At the same time, I don’t expect CSRIC to skip a beat. John Schanz is one of our Nation’s preeminent security leaders in the commercial communications sector. He brings valuable breadth and depth to the CSRIC as they tackle the significant challenges ahead.”
