Trump Meetings Include Those With Experts in Cybersecurity Risk, M&A

President-elect Donald Trump was scheduled to meet with officials involved in cybersecurity and mergers and acquisitions, transition spokespeople told reporters Thursday. One meeting was to involve Tom Bossert, a cyber-risk fellow at the Atlantic Council and president of risk management firm Civil Defense Solutions Consulting. Bossert was an official in the George W. Bush administration, working on homeland security issues and for the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Another meeting was to involve Jay Clayton, an attorney with Sullivan & Cromwell focused on M&A. Elsa Murano, a former Texas A&M University president and Agriculture Department official under George W. Bush, is “going to be a candidate for Agriculture,” said transition spokesman Sean Spicer.
