President Donald Trump has nominated Army Lt. Gen. Joshua M. Rudd for promotion to general and to assume the role of director of the National Security Agency and chief of U.S. Cyber Command, the Defense Department announced Thursday.
Rudd, who most recently served as deputy commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, would take over the two roles at Fort Meade, Maryland, if the Senate confirms him.
