Ok, good analogy on how _businesses_ run their internet security. However, the government, and the DNC too, are only interested in security when they can't just use their thugs instead. We're way behind in cyberwarfare precisely because our federal government thinks like a thug ... or in other words, like a big dumb criminal. The DNC gets political mileage out of being hacked because they can create a controversy (blaming Russia) and look good (their opponent isn't as anti-Putin as they are). Why should they ask their contractors for better security? They pay top dollar and are getting what they want: none of the hassles of real security, and if ... when they get hacked, they get to choose their response: (1) blame Russia (2) blame Trump (3) blame the contractor (4) blame the government I'm sure there are more response strategies, I'm just too lazy to think them all up. The point is, they're not ignorant of their incompetence. No, they are very competent and manipulating the ignorant masses who will believe them when they announce "Russia did it!" (Everything I just said applies equally to the R party as well.) If the DNC, RNC, or federal government was even halfway smart in their criminal mindset, they'd secure their systems. Maybe plant some honeypots. Probably fire all the government contractors who are leaving them wide open.
