I have worked in Finance for 25 years, and the amount of pressure I had to stand from Auditing on "Why do we have a 20-day-window on applying most updates as we get them from suppliers? We are not best practice!" is gruelling.

These people report to the Board Chairman, don't understand any real implication of their work, and believe the world is a simplistic Red - Amber - Green grid.

I understand most CIOs / CTOs / CISOs in Corporate would buckle.




So the silver lining from this incident would be that you can simply point to it, and tell those auditors to fuck off.
