It happens quite a lot - nowadays services are deployed into the cloud where people are more security concious but when people deploy on-prem they are often more negligent
- jfoster 7y agoInteresting point. Does having physical access to the hardware make people feel overly secure?
- nerdponx 7y agoIn my personal experience, yes. There is an unbelievable amount of sensitive data, whether corporate or personal, unencrypted on network shared drives and laptops across corporate America. I'm pretty much a lay person when it comes to security, so I don't know generally how safe or unsafe that is. But there is definitely a sense that, as long as you don't get phished, everything on-prem is basically "secure" and IT is just taking care of it. For example my employer had strict rules about data that can be stored on a cloud service, but less-strict rules about data that can be stored on an on-prem network drive.
