Ultimately, the problem is self-interested people, misaligned incentives, and insufficient legal recourse for victims. What's the motivation to do anything right in security if most of the time you don't have a breach and you can get away cutting corners? When something does go wrong, you can blame it on underlings, claim it was a "sophisicated attack from nation-state actors", and rely on the public to not care? I don't know that security is comparable to project management, health care services, or marketing. Inefficiencies in those have visible costs and reasonably good incentives for improving them.
