> We have zero tolerance for misuse of credentials or tools, actively monitor for misuse, regularly audit permissions, and take immediate action if anyone accesses account information without a valid business reason.

Okay, so who has been fired?

That's what "zero tolerance" means: no excuses, not even "someone tricked me." And no punishment but the maximum.

Anything less would involve some degree of tolerance, and when you say "zero" that means no tolerance whatsoever.

It's obviously stupid to manage any organization that way, of course. It's a fatuous, dishonest phrase.

So stop talking about "zero tolerance" since all it means is "we make hyperbolic claims that we have no intention of living up to."
