I'd say it's 40% paranoid arse-covering by IT department heads, 35% whatever middle management incorrectly assumes to be current best practices, 20% ego-stroking by the CIO, and 5% sensible context-driven decision-making by IT front-line staff.

Those numbers sound a little thin on the bottom, but only a little. Maybe take 15% out of the CIO category and just throw it away, because they're usually very quick to turn on their underlings.
