Headline-grabbing issue: The move follows a presidential campaign that was dominated by running storylines related to cybersecurity.

The order is expected to commission several different reviews of the government's offensive and defensive cyber capabilities, according to one of the sources and a third briefed on a draft of the order that circulated last week.
