One chestnut from my history in lottery game development:

While our security staff was incredibly tight and did a generally good job, oftentimes levels of paranoia were off the charts.

Once they went around hot gluing shut all of the “unnecessary” USB ports in our PCs under the premise of mitigating data theft via thumb drive, while ignoring that we were all Internet-connected and VPNs are a thing, also that every machine had a RW optical drive.

      I made one comment to you clarifying the other person’s point because you clearly didn’t understand what they were saying. Personally seen a couple of small companies fold because they were ransomed from a password on a post it. But you do you.
