PROLOGUE

“A little neglect may breed great mischief…For want of nail, the shoe was lost;For want of a shoe, the horse was lost;And for want of a horse, the rider was lost.”

Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard’s Almanac 1758

“A little lack of countermeasure may breed great breach…For want of firewall, the software was lost;For want of software, the hardware was lost;And for want of hardware, the user was lost.”

Mehmet Sahinoglu, Cyber-Risk Informatics 2016
