It seems to me that the public ombudsman role you propose is already played by the other agencies and departments involved in the Vulnerabilities Equities Process https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/images/External%20-%20Unclassified%20VEP%20Charter%20FINAL.PDF https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/images... I would specifically call out Treasury (high dependence of financial sector on publicly available products), OMB (high dependence of government systems on publicly available products), and Commerce (most direct purview of publicly available products) in playing that role.
