That does not quite sound correct, as the CAC will give you a further 18 
months to comply with your obligations past the October 13th deadline.
Unless I am missing something.

Did everyone else get the new July industry FAQ?
I don't see any reason why anyone would be disapproved, providing you 
give the government enough technical information so it looks like you 
know what your talking about.
Most of us are using Datacentres that already have decent security and 
measures in place, to prevent fires, etc, or at least as much as 
technicly is possable, its like all the security questions on the form, 
you can only protect data up to a particular point, but email just by 
the way its designed is not always secure.
The new FAQ tries to clear a lot of stuff up.
But the case studies don't mention web hosting providers that also offer 
email, which is annoying, I guess I will just need to wait it out and 
see what the department says.
They do mention over the top OTT services though which is where a lot of 
smaller providers will need to provide info.
