+- They primarily focus on documentation and standardization rather than
+  addressing dynamic and evolving threats that require adaptive and proactive
+  solutions.

+- The static nature of standards like ISO9660 cannot keep pace with the rapid

+- Implementing regulatory processes can be resource-intensive, leading

+  to overlook or abandon comprehensive security measures due to effort, cost or
+  complexity.
+
+- Compliance with standards doesn't guarantee overall security resilience, as
+  these frameworks often fail to account for human factors such as insider
+  threats, human error or inadequate security awareness.
+
+Thus, while regulatory processes lay the groundwork for security best
+practices, they are not comprehensive solutions for the complex, ever-changing
+landscape of cybersecurity threats.
