On Thursday, President-elect Donald Trump finally revealed what role former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani will play in his administration. Giuliani — once thought to be a contender for secretary of state or attorney general — will be advising Trump on issues of cybersecurity, Trump said in a statement.
Specifically, Trump's transition team said Giuliani will offer "expertise and insight as a trusted friend" on "private sector cybersecurity problems and emerging solutions developing in the private sector." Giuliani, chairman of the global cybersecurity practice at Greenberg Traurig and chairman and CEO at security consulting firm Giuliani Partners, has worked on security solutions in the private sector for the past 16 years.
