And you could go back fifty. As long as no one really cares if an unknown person “piggy backs” on them when they enter the “secure” section of their office building in the morning, then those people surely will not care about online security either. The former are e.g. all too busy to get into the building to really want to wait until the door closes behind (!!!) them again before they proceed. They just don’t CARE! And those people eventually become CEO after letting total strangers trail them into the building on THEIR security ID (essentially). And so the CEO has the same mindset. And then that is what he/she does when it comes to all (!) other areas of security. And which is why neither do they know who has access to their computer systems (only in theory) nor do they know how many people have to be evacuated in case of alarm (only in theory), because no one accounts for the “piggy backers”.
