Common misconceptions about enterprise IT security focus on five core issues. These are;
- Over-Relying on Network Defenses: The problem isn’t our networks (which are pretty well protected), it’s crappy software. There is no discipline or rigor to software engineering like there is in other engineering disciplines.
- Believing the Hype of Technology/Tools: I love tools. I worked for a software testing tools vendor for five-plus years. But I also recognize that tools don’t make people better. They simply make people more efficient in jobs they are trained to do.

- Assuming Secure Software is Costly: Though it may add time to the up-front software development cycle (SDLC), e.g., defining requirements properly and designing systems well, integrating security into each phase of the SDLC saves tons of time and money in later phases; especially testing and deployment, when security holes take a long time to troubleshoot, re-code, and patch.
- Falling into the “Recency ” Trap: I love this one. It’s a psychological problem more than anything. People react to the most recent scare. For example, lost laptops net data encryption. Netbots net invest in IPS.
Make sure that you don't get trapped in these and ruin your organisation. If In the past you had, then tell me what you did to overcame them.
