New York Times Eliminates Director of Information Security Position
"Why do we need a Security Director?  Our security is fine, there's no problem, so why spend the money?"There's this weird dynamic in Information technology where professionals doing their jobs really well result in there being no problems.  When there is no problems there's not much attention and the lack of problems is devalued by management.Management value teams and managers who heroically solve big problems and issues.This is why companies can sometimes decide that their best people are not needed cause "all is so quiet" and fire them.
