Should DR/backup folks report to the security team?

This is a response to Tom Hollingsworth's (@networkingnerd) video "Disaster Recovery is a Security Function," found here: https://gestaltit.com/tomversations/tom/disaster-recovery-is-a-security-function-tomversations-episode-25/. I respectfully disagree w/Tom's assertions in his video, and decided to use this as the first episode I'm going to publish a video version of. You can listen to the podcast on all the usual podcast channels, or watch the video version on youtube here: https://youtu.be/ym_ibNWVjgATom said that backup and security are very closely related, and suggested that if we reported to the same team, we could perhaps accomplish more together. While I understand the point he is making, I disagree with it, and Prasanna and I discuss it on this episode. We believe Tom's opinion comes from an outdated concept of how security works in backup systems; we haven't worked like that in quite some time. I explain how modern backup systems work from a security perspective, then talk about the idea of backup folks reporting to security folks. I think it's a bad idea for several reasons.
