Rich:

Thanks for the ping. I really should have emphasized more the unfortunate value decay of “security” into compliance and reiterate the notion that security does not equal compliance (or vice versa.)

I don’t want people to come away with the message that I think that compliance is more important than “security” or managing risk, because that’s definitely NOT the case. Rather, it’s a delicate and rather unfortunate position that we’re in when compliance trumps other more reasonable approaches to ensuring viable business operations.
