All I see here is a government subsidy for security vendors. I'd rather see more liability and insurance requirements for security breaches, including personal liability for executives. Whatever it takes to get past checkbox-driven security.

It's a start, but moving the needle on issues can be hard, slow work -- especially when it seems like so many people have the attitude that if a particular action wasn't the their perfect, preferred solution, then it shouldn't have been done at all.

The regulators are the administrators (or whoever) that require the useless textbooks. Of course, there are many useful textbooks with none of the above properties, but they don’t require complicated incentive structures to ensure they’re made mandatory.
