The White House has named tech giant Oracle as the company that will power TikTok for U.S. users, with the app's algorithm being operated in the United States.A

Oracle stock rose over 6% Monday as the White House confirmed that the software giant is part of a consortium of investors that will control TikTok's US operations. The company also separately announced a CEO shakeup.

Congress has effectively banned TikTok in the U.S. based on national security concerns, telling TikTok's Chinese parent company ByteDance to divest or face a ban in the U.S., but Mr. Trump has paused its enforcement three times. Congress may still need to sign off on any finalized TikTok deal.

Under the current terms of the proposal, the new U.S. joint venture would receive a licensed copy of the recommendation algorithm that keeps TikTok users endlessly scrolling through clips on their smartphones. Oracle would review, monitor and secure U.S. data flowing through the service.

President Donald Trump’s plan to save TikTok for Americans casts Oracle Corp. as the security guard for US user data and the app’s all-important algorithm.
