UNCLASSIFIED 5 Identified Challenges That Impede Information Sharing Unclassified information sharing and coordination with non- DoD entities are problematic –DoD culture is “classify by default” rather than “share by default.” –Not everyone wants to share or cooperate with USG/DoD –Cumbersome, ad hoc networks; no sharing environment 5 Organizational cultures and stovepipes impede progress –Policies and procedures are unclear on release/sharing –Over classification and excessive caveats- i.e.. FOUO / SBU –Tactics, techniques, and procedures are not standardized or well known Information sharing is not always recognized as “good” –DoD organizations are concerned about information integrity –NGOs are concerned about neutrality and cooptation –Risk aversion Sharing must be bi-directional - DoD must offer what the Community of Interest requires
