All The Technology In The World...

... can't work if you don't use it. Sometimes, with all the technology we employ to create safeguards, we lull ourselves into a false sense of security. I've run into this myself more than a few times, where I overly trust my code or my policies to bring about the outcomes I want.

This story about an impostor working a full shift in an E.R. reminds us all that no matter how much thought and preparation we put into any system, the weakest link is always the trust you place in your users.‎
