I'm no expert, but it seems to me that if the technical staff is
implementing a policy of passive resistance after you, as a consultant,
leave then getting buy-in by the CIO or CTO is not enough. This appears
to be the most difficult part of the problem. I think that the examples
given so far also show that the top-down approach of "do it my way because
I know better" is not effective in the long term, the only way that you
are going to increase the computer security of an organization is if
across the board the technical staff are with you and they _WANT_ to do it
of their own volition.
