I hope responsible people will not fall prey to this baseless course of action by blindly following the "but IBM also does it" mantra. This is almost the same idiocy like "enforcing periodic password changes enhances security".

It's *exactly* the same thinking as periodic password changes.

In either case, I don't think it has all that much to do with
following IBM's lead. The accepted "best practice" can come from
various sources, and I'll bet IBM does it because they are following
someone else's lead.
