Human beings are the core of all security issues, as part of the problem and part of the solution. Security people are no exception. There are things that we do in trying to solve the problem that actually merely shift things around, or make it worse. In this BoF, we'll talk about what we security pros do that aren't helping and what we do that make things worse.
