NO PERFECTION IN INFOSEC
For many who have never worked within INFOSEC, it can seem to be a very rigid industry, akin to the perception of perfection, i.e., whole and complete, seemingly untouchable with an impenetrable shield, which can sound similar to operating within an IRS or other government structure. As you start to peel back the layers in time, you may find that perfection doesn't exist, yet there is fluidity and flexibility in often unexpected areas.
Similar to humanity you will find that no perfection exists within business programs as there is a constant juggling act with balancing costs, operational functions, effective use of modern tools versus necessary security protections, achieving your business or mission goals, and more.
You will also find there are many ways to implement INFOSEC and to effectively manage your business operations (1000 creative ways to finish a task), and some industries will always have greater risks to contend with due to the vary nature of the industry type.
At the end of the day, perfection doesn't exist in INFOSEC, as every entity has weaknesses, but excellence can. Like any other area where excellence is achieved, 'practice', as in daily practice is the operative word that helps you get there. There is no magic fairy dust that will solve your INFOSEC worries overnight, but making daily efforts to develop awareness, be more watchful, and focus will help you to greatly improve.
Protect your business, protect your clients.
