Blindsided

What do you think?
• Disrepair breeds disrespect.
• Focus on the expected, and the unexpected.
• Like deer, security would do well to look up.
• Kilroy had kids.

Chlorine for stagnant security thinking...
Our roof artist might have spent their time entering the building, planting bugs or stealing documents, instead of graciously exposing a security vulnerability.

Time to shake it up. Make sure 80% of your security budget isn't protecting 20% of your company's value.

The value ratio in many companies is more like 20% physical assets, 80% intellectual assets. Many security budgets protect in the opposite direction – which is like looking in the wrong direction.
