President-elect Donald Trump named Flynn to his cabinet on Friday after the former military intelligence leader acted as the top military advisor to Trump’s presidential campaign. Flynn previously was director of the Defense Intelligence Agency and has served in Afghanistan and Iraq. He’s called U.S. cyber capabilities underwhelming and stunning in response to hacking attempts from other nations. Flynn advocates a task force that would meet frequently to discuss new legislation and policies on technology. He also advocates a “storyteller-in-chief” who can explain complicated cyber matters in way everyone can understand.”]
