Even more than this, it's a skillset and mindset issue. Many
organizations don't know enough about how the underlying technologies
work to understand that they need to incorporate these costs and
allocate these resources as part of the project spend, nor do they
think to ask around (or even use the Search Engine of Their Choice) to
find out about the 'unknown unknowns'.
To mount a successful defense, one must learn to think like an
attacker. This seems to be a relatively rare attitude, unfortunately.
