If you asked my previous immediate boss (at a very sleazy dot.com) if he took security seriously, he said, and I quote from memory as he did say this infront of me to a client on the phone "Sure, we do quarterly scans of all the machines, and we're using a security company, which we're not at liberty to name, that does scans for Fortune 500 companies and they say we're secure." (And no, not a single scan was done, and no security company was hired, because they were cheap bastards. The only scan that was done, was by me, only because I wanted to play with Nessus, and boy, it said the opposite of secure, which I then had to patch all them boxes, but this was later on.)
