The first shouldn't do it and the security/IT guys should take it as a warning.

The problem is typically that the higher-ups in any given company want to nickel-and-dime their IT security, typically only reacting once a breach has taken place... with the constant cries of the security folks falling on deaf ears, yet they're also the first to be blamed for the security failures.

So don't point fingers at the security folks... they know it's an issue, but the executives would rather line their own pockets and show better profit margins to their investors.
