A Barn Door Has No ROI
When you think about it, farmers know where their assets are better than a lot of us in business. Usually, they’re in the barn. A security geek’s interpretation of the term “closing the barn door after the horses have bolted”, would probably be something like “it’s too late to take preventative action after the incident has occurred.”
But if you think on it a bit longer, you may also realize that the barn door was probably already there; it just wasn’t being used properly at the time the horses escaped. Sometimes (as in when a security breach occurs) our safeguards are in place and just not used properly, but other times we didn’t even have a barn door to close. Is it any wonder the horses got out?
