Fiction and fantasy are frivolous ways to escape reality.
At least sometimes.
Other times, they are a better way to tell the truth and to make deep reflections than other forms of communication.
When I read Brandon Sanderson I see such reflections.
Maybe the author put them there.
Maybe I see them for some other reason.
In fact, I do not mind.
One of the reflections in one of his books is about the most important step.
The first idea that came to my mind is the same that came to the mind of the protagonist.
It must be the first step.
But that only makes sense before beginning your journey.
After some time, the reader and the protagonist find the answer.
Of course, the most important step is always the next one.
Before beginning your journey, the next step is the first one.
For the rest of the journey, you will always have a next step as long as you move forward.
Many professions work with the idea of “Done”.
You can call it “Finished”, “Over”, or something else.
In Security, it is difficult to think of something like that.
Almost all initiatives require maintenance, and some effort to keep them alive.
Of course, you can begin an audit and you “Finish” it. Yes.
But the audit is just the trigger of the fixes to do.
In Security, finishing something means you are ready to take the next step.
If you want to take your next step in securing your company, think it again.
Every next step will not be the last one.
Every next step is a commitment to changing things.
To continue changing things.
If you do not want to change things in your security management, be happy.
