I would be absolutely delighted were there to be any kind of attempt, here or in the Forums or on the mailing list, to create a top-down structure of what we should cover, and perhaps even get some agreement as to who does what. As it is, there have been some differing views on how to approach [[cryptography]]; there's an author that consciously is bottom-up while I am top-down. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C.

Not sure...
It's not a bad short article, but, obviously, there is a huge amount of material in the field. I only started communications security and am not even sure if that's the right term, given the blurry line, for example, between the network proper and things such as server authentication. To some extent, I punted when putting in a stub for information assurance, which is used by GCHQ and (I think) NSA. I'm not convinced that even information assurance covers things such as personnel and physical security; see counterintelligence.
