“Army Gen. Paul Nakasone, the director of the National Security Agency, has told colleagues in the Biden administration he expects to step down from the helm of the nation’s electronic spy agency and military’s Cyber Command in the coming months, according to people familiar with the matter.

Gen. Nakasone, 59 years old, has said he is eyeing a possible departure in August or September after spending more than five years jointly running the two organizations, one of the people said, while others said his timing was less precise. Gen. Nakasone’s plans could change, in part because his deputy at NSA, George Barnes, also is expected to retire soon, the people said.”
