What are the advantages and disadvantages of keeping the strategic$-$planning process secret vs$.$ placing the firm's strategic plan on the corporate website and discussing strategies and planning publically?

What are three types of industries where secrecy is warranted and three industries where secrecy is not warranted, or does type of industry even matter?
