Funny, it's the Infosec guys (me) with the coolest tools and some of the most innovative code where I work, but IT won't let us use FOSS monitoring software because it hasn't gone through the proper approval board.

See how broad that brush was?



That's why I put (most) in parens. While I'm generally disappointed with the majority of infosec, there are really good infosec people out there. In my experience the good people in infosec are really, really brilliant, and are also just as frustrated with the rest of the field.
