The Zeroth Rule Of Computer/IT Security Policies: 

No policy can be so stringent as to encourage people to break it in order to get their jobs done. With the exception of highly regimented and closely inspected environments, such non-conformance will be totally invisible even if universally rampant. Rule-breaking will probably be vastly less secure than simply liberalizing the rules.

Correction: The Zeroth Rule of Anything With Any Rules At All
