Human error to architectural failure: Redefining cyber accountability

Human error to architectural failure: Redefining cyber accountability

In this Forbes Technology Council piece, Xiid CTO Federico Simonetti challenges boards to stop treating breach postmortems as personnel failures and start treating them as architectural ones. Human error is predictable; what makes it catastrophic is systems designed around preventing it rather than making it non-catastrophic by design. Simonetti identifies three places architectural risk accumulates, like reachable systems, standing access and static secrets, and flat segmentation, and gives boards three concrete questions to start pulling the conversation from awareness campaigns down into how the infrastructure was actually built.
