The White House Office of American Innovation hosts weekly meetings to focus on the biggest issues facing federal agencies, Matt Lira says.

Agency heads are required to "show preference in their procurement for shared IT services," such as email, cloud and cybersecurity services.

The 19-member council, created by an executive order, is chaired by President Donald Trump and otherwise led by a full-time director.

The Trump administration is “close” to unveiling its cybersecurity executive order and is carefully aligning its policy in that area with plans for modernizing federal IT networks, White House Cybersecurity Coordinator Robert Joyce said Monday in his first public comments since taking office.

Todd Park, former U.S. chief technology officer under President Barack Obama, has joined New America's board of directors.

The Trump administration said it will break with an Obama administration policy that proactively released most White House visitor logs online — a practice the former administration had held up as evidence of its commitment to transparency and opening government data.
