Yup. And history has shown, extensively, that improving security for legacy systems is difficult. It's not just a matter of throwing money at the problem.

The Biden administration has already (with much fanfare) encouraged IT security improvements in Federal systems with Biden's Executive Order. Whether that will have any practical effect is debatable, and indeed has been debated at great length. But it's not like the administration is just ignoring the need for local action as well as diplomacy.
