The article is about security in the large, not cryptography specifically, but 
http://www.eweek.com/security/enterprises-apply-wrong-policies-when-blocking-cloud-sites-says-study.html
 points out that many companies think that they are increasing their security 
by blocking access to sites they consider risky - only to have their users 
migrate to less well known sites doing the same thing - and those less well 
known sites are often considerably riskier.

My favorite quote:  "One customer found a user who sent out a million tweets in 
a day, but in reality, its compromised systems were exporting data 140 
characters at a time via the tweets."
