> In the past, exploiting an application required a highly skilled hacker with years of experience and a significant investment of time to find and exploit vulnerabilities. The reality is that humans don’t have the time, attention, or patience to find everything.

I read this as:

"We figured no one was looking so we just shipped unsafe garbage for years. We never once did an internal audit, never once paid a hacker to try to exploit our product, never thought we'd get caught with our substandard products."

If a guy in his basement with $200 dollars can ruin your company then you were trading on vapor the entire time. I'm sorry you had to find out this way.
