To quote the wise boxer Tyson: "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face". The same applies to any type of system/proceeds. Someone above correctly mentioned '1st line of defence'. I will add to the 'cloud does everything' comment that 'cloud is a computer somewhere else'. And THAT computer (somewhere else) needs sysadmins, netadmins, DBAs, and a bunch of other xyzadmins to get shit done and fix the many small cracks before they become big cracks. A company can automate all the way to 11, but you simply cannot remove the sysadmins completely for the equation (one does not simply walk into Mordor!). Machines don't do things by themselves. Skynet is not imminent.
