What Does This Book Cover? In the simplest of terms, this book is about what makes a lock or associated hardware “secure” and what can go wrong in the design. In more than one case, the result was the expenditure of millions of dollars on the research and development (R&D) of a high-security lock that was defeated in a few seconds by an 11-year-old kid with virtually no expertise. In my experience consulting for most of the world’s largest lock manufacturers, lock designs fail because of a lack of imagination on the part of everyone involved in the process. This lack of imagination has had significant and costly ramifications in terms of security failures, legal damages, an inability to meet state and federal standards, and a loss of credibility among customers. Ultimately, it puts consumers at risk, and they usually don’t know it. The results are from what I call insecurity engineering, which is the inability to design secure locks because of many factors in the education and training of engineers. That is what this book is about.
