    Sure, if someone knows her physical address, knows how to disable the building alarm, knows what drawer she keeps the passwords locked in, and knows how to pick the lock, she could be in trouble. But that is a very targeted attack and if someone is that determined she’s screwed anyway.

    99.9% of attacks are the “low hanging fruit, protected from repercussions by not physically being there” kind.

      Someone like an employee, janitor, or maintenance worker who has physical access to the building already is what I’m talking about. That’s definitely a low hanging fruit type of attack. See your boss’s passwords while your pissed off, snap a picture with your phone, fuck with them later.
