Is every industry as bad at buzzwords as we are?
A good test for a vendor who bandies about either of those terms is to ask the salespeople to define them. Can they break both down into practical daily security concepts like “least privilege”, “network segmentation”, “access management”, “asset inventory”, and so forth?
Anyway you’re always welcome to disagree. I welcome the debate. Just my two cents and reasoning.
