And yet I got my DoD system ATOed my way earlier this year by demonstrating to the security controls assessment team that the cost of default-deny-all exceeded the risk cost of default-allow with IDS alerts on unexpected traffic. Because not spending more on a security implementation than the amount by which it reduces the risk cost, is a CORE SECURITY PRINCIPLE while default-deny-all is merely a standard policy.
