WASHINGTON -- The government's coordinator for cybersecurity programs  
has quit, criticizing what he described as the National Security  
Agency's grip on cybersecurity.

Rod Beckstrom, a former Silicon Valley entrepreneur, said in his  
resignation letter that the NSA's central role in cybersecurity is "a  
bad strategy" because it is important to have a civilian agency taking  
a key role in the issue. The NSA is part of the Department of Defense.
