Taking a hack at it

Proposals to redefine info ops include:

* Removing physical attacks against information systems from the definition.

* Removing electronic warfare because it is an operational function that is controlled by regional commanders.

* Shifting information assurance to the communications and computing environment.

* Shifting computer network attack and defense to an area defined as computer network operations.
