@generalx @NosirrahSec The _vahst_ majority of the responses are the form filled "Thanks for applying but piss off." But you're not wrong, it's been a higher response rate than I expected even if it's still embarrassingly low for them.
I've spent the last 5-odd years on the consulting side doing vCISO style engagements as an engineer/architect. What you described for internal folks is definitely a problem, and usually a self-perpetuating culture issue. It can be a hard mindset to break without replacing the security or technology leadership.
Are you any happier in the CSM world?
