Outgoing president signs executive order to tackle US vulnerabilities after attacks that have cost country billions

The wide-ranging directive is likely to be the administration’s last big policy push before handing the keys over to Donald Trump, who heads to the White House next week and inherits a new world of cyber attacks that have cost the nation billions of dollars and punctured government offices.
