As I've seen in this news from Techrepublic, passwords can be cracked 25 times faster using graphic cards processors instead of CPU... ok, it's a technological news, but it points to the supporting Information Security idea that technology is not THE solution for security problems, as Information Security is a human task for human beings, not a machine set of tasks for machines.
So Security Information decisions based only on technologies will fail later or sooner, no matter how secure seems today. The role of Information Security is to be aware of these new vulnerabilities and check management styles to incorporate solutions in a fast and reliable way.
