A new report out from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) warns that the U.S. Department of Defense s efforts to unify its cyber security operations has serious gaps and that the Department is unprepared to meet the current threat of cyber attack. The report, issued on Monday, is an unclassified version of a classified report that has already been published. In it the GAO calls the Pentagon to task for failing to develop a uniform doctrine to govern its cyberspace operations, and for a lack of command and control authority.
