During an interview on Saturday, Karen Gibson said cyber threats keep her up at night, not the possibility of another Capitol breach.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as Democrats and the mainstream media are pushing for a 9\/11 style commission to look into the Jan. 6 attack. However, in recent weeks transportation systems, news stations and energy companies have fallen victim to hacking attempts.<\/p>\n<p>Gibson went on to say senators may have sensitive information in their possession that they may not want exposed. \u201cMembers have sensitive information that they would not necessarily want to have disclosed that may be in documents. Much of what we do is public\u2026and meant to be so,\u201d said Gibson.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2418319\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2418319\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-2418319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gas-657x437-1.jpg\" alt=\"A sign announces the days gas prices at a station in Annapolis, Maryland, on May 12, 2021. - Fears the shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline because of a cyberattack would cause a gasoline shortage led to some panic buying and prompted US regulators on May 11 to temporarily suspend clean fuel requirements in three eastern states and the nation's capital.

Russel Honore that were in charge of conducting a review of security at the Capitol in the wake of the Jan. 6 demonstration. Since, JBS Foods and the Colonial Pipeline have fallen victim to cyber attacks leading to a nationwide shutdown and a rise in gas prices.<\/p>\n<p>However, Gibson said she has a \u201chighly capable\u201d cybersecurity team that is working to secure the Capitol networks and understand their vulnerability. Gibson reiterated her stance saying, \u201cI think whether it\u2019s ransomware or other cybersecurity threats, yes, I actually, again I see cybersecurity as my greater concern than a mob attacking the Capitol.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/rep-kevin-mccarthy-calls-on-fauci-to-step-down\/\">Rep.
