> We think of computer systems as inherently insecure until proven otherwise, but they see their system as fundamentally secure until someone comes along and breaks it.

Hmm, I think you're onto something. Maybe they just don't get that the vulnerabilities are already there, waiting to be exploited -- they think that the person they've heard from actually broke something that will now make it possible for others to get in. I guess if you don't know what's going on, that's as reasonable a theory as any.
