Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani will be providing his “expertise and insight” with the Trump Administration on cyber security solutions.
Giuliani has been a long-time advocate of Trump’s campaign for president, speaking on his behalf for months leading to Election Day.
“Giuliani was asked to initiate this process because of his long and very successful government career in law enforcement and his now 16 years of work providing security solutions in the private sector,” the news release stated.
The former mayor currently works in the private sector, as chairman of the global cyber security practice at Greenberg Traurig and the chairman and CEO of Giuliani Partners.
“The president-elect’s intent is to obtain experiential and anecdotal information from each executive on challenges faced by his/her company, how the company met the challenges, approaches which were productive or successful, and those which were not,” the release stated.
The Trump team said he plans to host a series of meetings with company executives who face security challenges similar to the government, including hacking and data theft.
