She probably broke in as a programmer or in some other sort of technical position. Most skilled musicians easily adapt to programming, and back in the 80s I hired quite a few programmers with a music background.

Come to think of it, Øbama was an affirmative action “hire”.

I should add that in a large company like this, the CSO flies at 50,000 feet. She is unlikely to be aware of the sloppy practices that go on at ground level, and frequently it is very difficult to get subordinates to admit that their departments have a lot of problems.

In a dotted line situation, every manager concentrates on pleasing his primary manager, who wants the work done as rapidly and cheaply as possible, and pays only lip service to corporate-wide programs like security.

So they say. I’m suspicious that a lot of these data breaches aren’t insider jobs. Cases where an employee acting as a foreign agent and getting paid well to do it.

Equifax Chief Information Security Officer Was An Affirmative Action Hire

Wow, really?

Could this all have been done in an attempt to hide that the individual that Equifax put in charge of protecting 143 million American’s credit information was an affirmative action hire meant to meet some quota?

That still remains to be seen...

Or not.

Why post this?

Talk about the security cost of affirmative action hires and promotions, check out the the case of Britain's failure to stop terrorist attacks and Britain's Commissioner of Police, Cressida Dick.

Here's how and why she rose to "Britain's top police:"

Cressida Dick: A Profile
"...quickly moved up the ranks as a part of an accelerated promotion scheme"

"...made a commander in charge of the force’s diversity directorate"

UK’s most senior police officer Cressida Dick is in same-sex relationship

I wonder if we'll ever return to a time when police medals were awarded for courage in action against deadly criminals - rather than in "accelerated promotion" and "diversity?"

My work place hired a Mexican supervisor I think for affirmative action reasons. Next thing I know we have the system down for 3 days because he wants to be the person to fix the problem and critical system instead of getting the right people to work on the problem.

I’m a programmer but I do a bit scripting on the system side of things so I check if our Apache web servers are patched up after I read about the details of the equafax hack. They haven’t been patched in over 9 months and are vulnerable. I alert him to this fact and he shrugs it off. He says they’ll patch the test servers next week sometime and then get around to doing the live ones eventually. I can even fathom how people deal with IT people who don’t take things seriously. But that’s what you get with affirmative action.
