Every creature must contend with predators. Every life form is in one way or another a food source for another. Life eats life. How do you defend yourself in the tech kingdom? What kind of animal are you there? What's your security paradigm?
Some are like lions. They spend fortunes on technology and do not worry about predators. But lions are almost extinct and live in zoos.
Some are like ostriches and ignore IT threats as if they were inventions of consultants.
Others are like zebras. They count on the the size of their herd and hope that it's another zebra that will be eaten.
Then there are the gazelles that think that the most modern and nimble technology will outrun everything... as do the cheetahs.
Finally there's the pigeon who thinks he is safe in the cloud until an eagle comes out of nowhere and eats it in in mid-air.
Nobody's ever completely safe with technology, but the safest in both technology and the savanna is the one who is willing to learn from and trust others.
The creature with the highest chance of survival in the savanna is the youth.
The inability to learn, trust and adapt is the number one security vulnerability of the small and midsize business owner.
Instincts and habits are poor advisers in matters of security.
