That honestly just sounds like they're going after more government contracts. Gov't compliance can sometimes require asinine security controls because they expect the users are the weakest link in every design. That can sometimes be true, but when folks are developing things you sometimes have to let them make foot guns or they can't build things.
Not just government. The security questionnaires from companies of all types I had to complete in my last job were insane. If you're sharing data between organizations in any way, infosec and legal departments get very uppity these days.
just need that one idiot to fall for obvious scam mails and your security is compromised
Then vote for Google. I just commented for the (non-)tech, not the politics.
