This article tells you how Security and Convenience are inversely proportional to each other. Let’s start

I am going to explain security relation with convenience using Seesaw Example.
One of the most important responsibilities of a Cyber Security Professional is to keep this Seesaw level.
If you make one side too high, the other will suffers.

If we make our system too strong, then it will be very challenging for people to use our system. A strong policy means you are going to add more authentication processes due to which your work will slow down. People may be frustrated by filling out authentication forms. People will start writing their codes on sticky notes and will attach them with their working tables. This can cause privacy loss.

If we don’t make strong security policies. This can cause an increase in Data Breaching.

While making policies, we should keep in mind that these policies will not slow down your production rate.
