"Like most large enterprises, DOD wants to consolidate its networks under
a single architecture, making use of the Internet wherever possible, Hale

"Eventually, the agency wants to merge its own networks into a single
entity, Hale said."
It certainly reads to me that they want all their differently classified
networks to run over the Internet; which would imply crypto separation
would be required.
