Adding Cybersecurity to a 30-Year-Old Legacy App Is Pure Cosmetic Theater
Description
A meme with the caption 'When you add cybersecurity to a 30 year old legacy application..' above a photo of a white dress shirt where the buttons and buttonholes are completely misaligned. The left placket has about 10 white buttons sewn on in a slightly staggered column, while the right placket has roughly 20 buttonholes sliced into the fabric in a chaotic, scattered pattern that don't correspond to any of the buttons. The shirt collar is visible at the top. The metaphor is clear: bolting modern security controls onto ancient code results in nothing actually locking together properly, just the appearance of structure with zero functional alignment

The shirt has more holes than the application's authentication layer, and somehow the buttons still have better alignment than the security policies
