Always choose your opers and admins wisely. Remember the concept of weakest-link: even though you are careful and did everything by the book, maybe your friend which is an oper did something silly. Like never running security updates, blindly clicks a link in an e-mail which carries a trojan, etc... Unfortunately it's not always in your control. You can (partially) mitigate such problems by limiting oper privileges to only what they need, via the Oper block and Operclass block. Most important: choose your staff wisely and educate them on potential dangers.
