Which is a reason forand physical security regulations meeting a mixed resistance?

Cybersecurity and physical security regulations are intended to provide guidance and requirements for protecting industrial control systems from various threats and risks. However, these regulations may face mixed resistance from different stakeholders for various reasons. One of the reasons is that there are a limited number of enforced cybersecurity and physical security regulations, especially at the international level. This means that some regions or countries may have more stringent or comprehensiveregulations than others, creating inconsistencies and challenges for cross-border cooperation and compliance. Moreover, some regulations may be outdated or not aligned with the current best practices and standards, such as ISA/IEC 62443, which may limit their effectiveness and applicability. Therefore, some organizations may prefer to follow voluntary standards or frameworks, such as ISA/IEC 62443, rather than mandatory regulations, as they may offer more flexibility and adaptability to the specific needs and contexts of each industrial control system. References:
