The Gilmore Commission has strongly criticized the administration's cybersecurity policy and called for a merger of cyber- and physical security policy work in the White House. The commission's fourth report, released in full today, repeated the recommendation of its third report a year ago: to establish an independent commission on cybersecurity. "We have concluded that the physical and cyber elements of [critical infrastructure protection] are so intertwined that it makes no sense to address them separately," according to the fourth report.
