What's the solution though? Just extend the time to draft these standard by a couple of years and accept the fact that supply chains will be unregulated in the interim? Make sure FERC's NOPRs are clear? Modify the standard drafting process itself along the lines of older congressional proposals that give FERC the power to impose interim standards while NERC develops permanent? Move away from the supermajority quorum?<br /><br />Slow regulatory turnaround is a problem for cybersecurity, as it's such a quickly moving issue area. Other pressing issues are bound to come up in the future necessitating the rapid development of standards. I'd be curious to get your take on how to speed up the process of developing regulations.
