This analogy fails when you consider the complexities in securing a sprawling IT architecture for a massive corporation compared to putting a lock on a door.
Companies like Yahoo did try to secure themselves. They were just really bad at it.
- M_Grey 10y agoThe point of the analogy is that casual negligence of even the most basic security procedures should have built-in consequences... for the negligent party.
