Maybe I'm being too harsh, but my interpretation of that point is that they expect we'll eventually become perfect, which isn't going to happen in the software world as it hasn't happened in the airline world, even though the airline world has more incentives to be perfect in the form of more penalties when it isn't.
- riffraff 4y agoMy understanding is the author suggestion is to start with a security first approach, rather than wait-and-fix. They don't expect the airline to be infallible, but they expect the airline to be proactively avoiding trouble.

- kortilla 4y agoYou’re not being too harsh, you’re missing the point. Defense in depth is not something you advocate for if you expect perfection.
