SSA's CIO "accepts all risks" - but what does that actually mean in practice? Is he going to be held accountable?
> The agency’s chief information officer Aram Moghaddassi approved the move to copy the database to the agency’s cloud, saying he “determined the business need is higher than the security risk” and that he accepts “all risks” with the project.
- hbrav 1y agoThis is one of my pet peeves: people saying they accept risk/responsibility that they don't have the ability to accept. It's like co-signing a $1M loan when you only have $100 to your name.
- lesuorac 1y agoMore like writing Mickey Mouse as the co-signer. They made no effect to ensure security and will do so again.
