I agree; and I'll point out that this also provides air cover
for management when subsequent incidents happen, because they can
then issue press releases that read:
"We took all reasonably and customary measures...
No one could have foreseen...
We spent $BIGNUM on state-of-the-art(TM) firewalls..."
Never mind that the first rule in those firewalls is
pass all from any to any
