    You still don't know how much they spend and how the attack was done. Often security isn't even a matter of money, but knowledge and trust of your own teammates. Maybe you are right after all, but my point is, we don't know YET.

    Exactly. It only takes one printed picking list not shredded correctly and some asshole dumpster diving and there it goes. Or a wrongly formatted mail recipient… so many ways for humans to fail it’s funny to always see security reduced to technical measures.
