Obama's Cybersecurity Coordinator; the referrals came from the NSA, DNI, CIA and DHS champions
This is Jonathan Hare's account, with its provenance shown. The person or organization named has not yet claimed or corrected it.
Michael Daniel was Special Assistant to the President and Cybersecurity Coordinator when Jonathan Hare visited the White House in 2013–14 for briefings with his cybersecurity team — referrals courtesy of the architecture's champions at the NSA, DNI, CIA and DHS, per the contemporaneous account in S-074 (which spells him 'Daniels'; corrected here). The record holds the briefings as documented junctions of the Resilient era.
