Yes, I think the IT heads issue is the primary driver - combined with
very poor understanding of information security at senior levels and a
huge growth of poor quality and 'snake oil salesmen' in the IT security space
due to the amount of money ill informed senior managers are throwing at
what they think is a technical problem which usually is in fact a
business process problem.
