Comment : | My final comments are on the certification process. The current process is almost worthless for security. The process itself has to be made much more stringent.

Indeed, the TGDC passed resolution #17-05 calling for such an approach, which unfortunately does not appear in the guidelines.particular, security evaluations [Statements submitted at EAC public hearing, July 28, 2005, Pasadena]
