The saddest thing about IT & Cybersecurity is that 99% of the problems we& #39;re facing are not technical.
They& #39;re cultural, management and budget-related.
Implementing basic security controls, patching regularly, segmenting your network, EDR/AV on everything, it& #39;s basic shit.

"We can& #39;t afford a pentest", but you will literally spend thousands on Coffee and fancy office perks.
"We need to take down all machines and patch this week"
"Will there be downtime?"
"Unfortunately, yes"
"Oh - we can& #39;t risk that"
"Can we setup a dev instance to test?"
"No we can& #39;t afford the hardware for a new box right now"

Some vendors and sales people are running around pretending we have a technical problem, we don& #39;t. Implementing basic security controls is, well, basic.
But having the stars align, budget, culture, risk tolerance, and management buy in is hard.
