Major General (Retired) Robert Rosenberg noted one of
the 
most significant problems was security barriers when
he said,  
We must redefine the Cold War security classification
paradigm which so  badly slows down the OODA loop with
so many separate security systems, resulting in
islands of computers connected by miles of sneaker
nets, fat fingers and air gaps-to allow the flow of
information electronically across the many stovepiped
network centric systems and shared with our coalition
partners . . . Only the "ultra secrets" should be 
behind such barriers-and not shared.113
