Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

A thought piece that compares defensive security to a glacier in the sense that it is a colossal, slow-moving machine. The article gives some examples of major milestones in security and argues that they were all done by large corporations/governments and could not have happened sooner no matter what individuals did. It concludes that in defensive security, individuals must focus on smaller changes and wins than on large scale change.
