Sure, there are tons of anti this and that for your server or PC's protection but it still needs a human to do the settings. If something goes wrong, the administrator will be put to blame. So having tons of certifications to one's belt is useless if you are vulnerable to social engineering attacks. Here's a good read into the idea that you need to be smart about what goes into you IT systems and what information you give away on the internet.

Flaws, exploits, and patches for vulnerabilities all put the topic of computer security in the news regularly, but the typical PC user has more to fear from social engineering than malicious code. It really doesn't matter if someone uses a Windows-based system or a Mac OS-solution on a regular basis, according to McAfee's Allysa Myers on the McAfee Avert blog. Social engineering, not malware, poses the bigger threat.
