I was recently meeting with the Head of Security for a large firm. He had a pretty decent explanation of the process to implementing security that I thought was very apt. The way he put it, there’s two over arching milestones, “liability” and “actually secure”. “Liability” is where you have checked all the right boxes to be able to aptly defend yourself in court and is the achievable goal. “Actually secure” is the pipe dream you will always strive for, but never obtain.
