Security People

I will be coming back to this ! I know.

Security People can be dicks (I'm talking IT here, not Police etc..)

Hi - Can I come into my house please ? ?
No - your security team asked for ultra high security - you'll have to talk to the homeowner.

I am the home owner.. Not my problem, your security team asked for ultra high security.

OK - so now - the only way I'm getting into this house (for house - read your vital IT system) is to break one of the windows with this crow bar - which if anyone spots me doing is going to put me in the nick..


People in security - please be careful what you ask for.. Also - please don't assume that making sysadmin's jobs harder makes your systems more secure, it means sysadmins write down the passwords on bits of paper !
