I’ve got 20 years or so left. I’m constantly talking to anyone who’ll listen about how security “professionals” are more focused on products than practices. We need a groundswell of support that just isn’t there. Security is tough, unforgiving work. You have to be right more than the bad guys and they’re changing strategies daily.

“Security is tough, unforgiving work.”

You spend MOST of your time at loggerheads with those who hired you to help them. Trying to talk sense into them.

They don’t care about the rare, devastating total breach. They think it’ll never happen. And you’re just trying to run up the bill with gibberish.

It’s the damndest thing.

Well, the devastating total breach happened. And we can’t even take solace in it, or say I told you so.

This one is the hack of the century.
