Einsicht in Sicherheit

Another perspective on it is that "Business Needs" define how much security (more expensive) is valued over simplicity (cheaper). The "simplest" network is "Grannies" Windows 98 PC plugged directly into the Internet.  It's simple, cheap and about as secure as a screen door on a submarine.  The most "secure" computer is setup inside a Faraday cage, inside a vault, not connected to any network.  And the power is turned off.  It's only use is to collect dust.
