Trump’s cyber workforce order gets bipartisan praise

Abstract: 
"Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle chimed in on President Donald Trump's cybersecurity executive order. Spoiler alert: They all like it, but many will be watching how it's implemented." Documents recently declassified that discuss CYBERCOM's Cyber mission Force's evolution are showing the connection between broad U.S. cyber strategy and the tactical execution of cyber activities. Cybersecurity, which - along with national security writ large - is generally seen as a more bipartisan effort; Democrats praised the Executive Order although acknowledged that they will continue to watch its implementation. Additionally, the National Security Agency released FOIA-requested documents that give "fresh insight" into the Command's Cyber Mission Force, which discusses the development of offensive cyber capabilities.
