One chestnut from my history in lottery game development:
While our security staff was incredibly tight and did a generally good job, oftentimes levels of paranoia were off the charts.
Once they went around hot gluing shut all of the “unnecessary” USB ports in our PCs under the premise of mitigating data theft via thumb drive, while ignoring that we were all Internet-connected and VPNs are a thing, also that every machine had a RW optical drive.
As someone who manages multiple identity systems - tell your IT to get their act together. Most of my environments we force reaith once a week (and that just a quick enter your password/TOTP code). Otherwise if you can log into your computer we trust you are who you say you are (note: we have some downright scary and invasive stuff on the network so we know if you start accessing stuff you should not). The sensitive/scary stuff is a lot faster (activity timers), but the teams involved know why it’s set this way (and where involved in setting the maximum durations).
