My wife can relate to the pain. She had the same problems at Digital Equipment in the Eighties and Nineties. Corporations don’t care about data security, because that costs money.

Lots of IT folks, security experts, and software engineers in this thread saying “the struggle is real.”

I feel like I’m writing the same stories over and over again and it never seems to change anything:

Somebody didn’t patch.
Somebody didn’t test.
Somebody bought and forgot.
Somebody thought security through obscurity works.
Somebody didn’t respond to a vulnerability report.
