Sunday Security Maxim
Galileo’s Maxim: The more important the assets being guarded, or the more vulnerable the security program, the less willing its security managers will be to hear about vulnerabilities. Comment: The name of this maxim comes from the 1633 Inquisition where Church officials refused to look into Galileo’s telescope out of fear of what they might see. Compiled by Roger G.
