Holly Baroody, one of the NSA\u2019s senior officials in the United Kingdom and a former top civilian at U.S. Cyber Command, will serve as his deputy. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> Recorded Future News first reported earlier this year that the pair had been tapped to helm the outfit in acting roles. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> The agency also selected Bruce Jones, a career NSA technical and operational leader, as the new head of its Cybersecurity Collaboration Center, an unclassified hub where government and private sector experts exchange information about hacking threats, often in real time. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> NSA declined to comment. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> The appointments, which are expected to be announced publicly soon, come as the largest electronic spy agency in the world looks to rebound from one of the more chaotic years in its history.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> The NSA experienced an almost year-long leadership vacuum that included a string of high-level departures and saw thousands of career personnel exit after pressure from the Trump administration to slim down its workforce. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> Things have calmed since new leadership was installed atop the agency. Tim Kosiba, a former senior NSA, was appointed to the No. 2 spot in January. Army Gen. Joshua Rudd was confirmed in March to be the \u201cdual-hat\u201d leader of Cyber Command and NSA. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> The agency is also grappling to understand how it can best incorporate artificial intelligence into its own operations, as well as its role within the federal government in terms of the technology.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\"> The White House last month postponed the release of an executive order that would have made the NSA responsible for&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/therecord.media\/nsa-selects-new-leads-for-cyber-posts\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NSA selects new leads for key cybersecurity posts https:\/\/therecord.media\/nsa-selects-new-leads-for-cyber-posts Publish Date: 2026-06-01 14:37:00 Source Domain:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":261299,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cms.therecord.media\/uploads\/ave_calvar_8_8xu_Jp8_M_unsplash_6f3e8537f6.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[20,57],"class_list":["post-261298","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261298"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261298"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261298\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":261300,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261298\/revisions\/261300"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/261299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
