Heh... I won't mention the name of the company that I think you're talking about but its initials are "Equifax" 😛

I can't believe that the CEO of a company would be so lame as to try to put the blame on some probably overworked nub that forgot to install a patch.  Where is the sign off and verification of the process that requires the installation of such patches?  That blatherskite of a CEO should be folded in half and shot butt first from a cannon into the business end of a sharpened telephone poll.

Absolutely great article on the subject, Phil.  Thanks for taking the time to write it.
