A return to silence in a post-WikiLeaks world?

[babyfish520]

Dismayed by the massive war-documents leak, intelligence experts are raising alarms that post-Sept. 11 changes promoting information sharing have made it too easy to lose control of the nation's secrets.
Some intelligence veterans say it's time to rethink how widely classified material is shared at lower levels or, at the very least, to step up monitoring of the people who are given access.
"Frankly, we all knew this was going to happen," says former CIA Director Michael Hayden. He predicts "a new emphasis on protecting."
The intelligence failures that led to the attacks of 9/11 were blamed on government agencies hoarding information instead of sharing it, missing crucial clues that could have headed off al-Qaida's strikes. The changes that reduced this kind of information "stovepiping" have produced the opposite problem — amassing so much data that officials complain it's hard to make sense of it, and as the WikiLeaks incident shows, keep it secret.
Both intelligence officials and outside experts suggested that agency chiefs may push to limit access to electronic "portals" that have provided growing data access to intelligence officers, diplomats and troops around the world. And others predicted tighter scrutiny by an administration that has already pushed aggressively to investigate and prosecute leakers.
