It seems that they are able to shut them down manually and restart them and they are ok with that rather than holding the vendor to creating a hardened protocol stack.
This really sounds a lot more like a political/managment/policies issue than a security engineer issue. The higher-ups need to kick the vendors into doing the right thing.
