Information is key

You are the greatest application manager and the best security supervisor in the IT industry! Your clients are Applocked and secure, your users lack any higher level of permissions, the firewall blocks anything even remotely suspicious and the antivirus catches everything and then some.

You sit back and sip your cup of coffee.

Suddenly your boss storms in! He's been "offered" to pay a million bucks or all your secrets will be sold to the highest bidder! A stack of pdf-files shows they mean business.

How the hell did somebody get their hands on all your documents when your environment is so secure?

Wait, what is this at the bottom of every page?




Oh. A user gave away all the secret documents willingly.

Maybe somebody ought to inform the users they have a local pdf-converter installed on the computer.

Information is the key.

Unfortunately, it's hard to find.
