Security is not on most people's mind...

I was walking trough a mall when I realized the easiest way to get the floorplan for buildings (banks, hotels, any public area): evacuation plans. In Romania buildings obliged by law to display these publicly. And they do, including the backrooms... (I don't know the laws in other countries, but I would imagine that they would be similar).

The conclusion is that security is not the first (or even second or third) thing on most people's mind. The consequence for people doing security is that resources allocated will be fewer. Also, there is an expectation for security not to interfere with things which are on people's mind, making it more challenging...
