I think it's pretty damning to the military that they have such huge issues with their secret data. Relatively pedestrian measures required by standards like PCI-DSS could increase the security of these systems many-fold.

The problem comes from inherent tensions between two goals: secrecy on the one hand, efficient data dissemination on the other. You can have one or the other, but not both at the same time. So the state of the arts moves back and forth between the two.
