Could you speak up a bit? I didn't catch your password

Earlier this year, Outpost24 surveyed 155 IT professionals during the RSA Conference in San Francisco and found that 71 per cent were quite sure they could successfully hack any organisation via social engineering, insecure web apps, mobile devices or a public cloud. The other 29 per cent correctly pretended that they couldn’t.
All this comes as the result of self-conflict. We keep thinking up better methods of keeping data secure. But security makes the data awkward to access so we invent ways of circumventing it. Then we have to brick up the circumventions with more layers of security. This eventually gets so annoying to sidestep that we give up on the workarounds altogether and demand instant backdoors instead.
And if you thought fighting off security breaches were already a pain in the arse, just wait until a government opens your backdoor.

Unreal, just unreal. Remember folks, it is Google who controls your Android Cell Phone and Apple is only somewhat better. It comes down to who you want to sell your soul to.
The author of the story has it matter correct when he states, “I want to be your backdoor man!”
