"We get loads of sales reps touting their latest MagicBox™ that completely and totally makes everything secure. Sophos was clearly doing that, and they should absolutely be brought down to earth."
Yes, and so should every PHB (and government minister) who puts all the security eggs in one vendor's basket (or allows Crapita and ilk to do so). Multilayer protection from multiple vendors - and air gap the network if there is sensitive material on it. If the boss says no, write it up. Sooner or later someone has to accept they pay professionals to do a job, if they tried and the PHB & beancounters prevent that, then the PHBeans are the ones who should face the consequences - as should their political masters
