I never thought of “security” as something you can easily adjust. To me, assessing the security of a software product or service allows me to understand the maturity of the development team. Ergo, the maturity of the security inside a product should be comparable with its other qualities -no more, no less.

That said, my personality tends towards “problem fixing” so if I were to join a company with a reactive approach, I’d probably want to be part of a project to make it pro-active. But I’d have a very “security must be seamless” mindset. Otherwise, you get lots of (unnecessary) authentication.
