What about DHS's BOD 18-01 which cites DMARC? I know that's probably a mere statute but it's close.

Our standards don't have that problem since we long ago decided to give
them away for free.  Are there laws in the US or elsewhere that use IETF
standards?

I took the direct approach of searching the Cornell LII's US law archive
for "RFC".  There were about a dozen RFC references in the Code of Federal
Regulations, and a lot court cases about the depression-era Reconstruction
Finance Corp., but nothing in a statute.
