This equation is like the wealth equation. If you go to prison for stealing, you didn't steal enough. How many bankers went to jail over the financial crisis and the massive fraud conducted with regard to mortgage bundling? The answer is close to 1.
So the counterintuitive fact of the matter is devastation may sow a proactive response of hardening and scrutiny, but often it does not. The reasons for this range from system administrators misrepresenting the issue to their managers, to managers and board members misrepresenting the issue to their customers, or simply down to the fact that the vast majority of sysadmins are basically trained monkeys.
The reason companies like Crowdstrike exist (almost used existed but getting ahead of myself by a few weeks) is to help corporations cover up this sort of thing in order to indemnify those corporations from culpability due to their negligence and/or dishonesty.
simplistic black hat thinking is devised by people without the intellectual capacity to operate a workstation, though through social engineering and 'Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing' tropes can dominate an industry throughout an administration.

Could you please elaborate on that? Are you saying that black hats are simplistic? In what way?
