It's human nature to want to act immediately and alleviate pressure when you find yourself in hot water.

Building security into the framework of an organization prevents security from being seen as a barrier to daily activities. If an employee feels as if a security measure is inhibiting them from completing their daily tasks, they're far more likely to find a way around that measure.
