CYA? Seriously, leadership never takes responsibility. When you dump every possible thing on the table for the leaders to look at, at no point can the phrase "we didn't know" be said honestly.

Because its neither a simple system or is it "just" a web site. This is a false equivalency (propagated by whom, I don't know) that seems to 1) imply that a 'website' is equivalent to Bob's geocities html page from 1992 and 2) thats all that is going on with it.
I have to really wonder if any of the 'concern trolls' have actually tried to deploy a database drive web portal in which 1) all parts are under your control and 2) without other regulatory overhead, and 3) has to handle more than a few hundred people.

Well MIkey, perhaps you should do the same thing.
Is this really any conceptually different than different privileges for different accounts? Or account exclusion on different tables in a database?
It would also seem to just be moving the privileged chain to another level from UN/PW to current user/passcode.
I don't think you know what illegal means.
Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death. -- James F. Byrnes
