Didn't read the pdf but I used to work for a lottery Corp and from what I heard security was nuts. One of the server room IT guys left for Blue Cross and later said Blue Cross was much less strict than the lottery.

I also recall one of the compliance guys telling me about the balls used in one of those bingo ball tumbling machines. He said they had to wash, dry and weigh each ball before every draw. Of course it was fun to yell to him saying on draw day "hey it's Friday did you wash and dry your balls?"

When did Blue Cross become the standard bearer for infosec?

People who haven't worked in infosec think companies like that would naturally be good at security. In reality they're some of the worst. Breaches are just very rare.
