From someone in IT but not cybersec it seems like a lot of people in cybersec don't know much and are mindlessly following best practice guides or something without understanding why they do/don't need to implement it.
I regularly see in my own life people freaking out over things that don't apply to us or buying a million different software services. We are so many layers deep in cyber sec products but it would take 40+ days to restore from our backups..
Am I completely off base with this perception? Maybe I am putting to much weight on red team knowledge for a blue team job role.
