Congress is about to vote on a terrible new cybersecurity bill

#1  They didn't read this one any further than they did 'Affordable Care'. And if they did, which of them would know if it was any good?

To me it read as rehashed, outdated vendor whitepapers. When the body of work was circling for draft review, each session was heavily attended by representatives from Symantec, Norton, McAffee, Karpensky, et. al. each steering the contributors to their pound of flesh solution architecture.

Nothing new or exciting from NIST here. It reads as a voluntary, civilian version of DoD's DIACAP, which was old before it's mandatory implementation.

At least that gave us a baseline to improve from. This plan is simply another failed gesture.
