When the product encounters an error condition or failure, its
					design requires it to fall back to a state that is less secure than other
					options that are available, such as selecting the weakest encryption algorithm
					or using the most permissive access control restrictions.By entering a less secure state, the product inherits the weaknesses
						associated with that state, making it easier to compromise. At the least, it
						causes administrators to have a false sense of security. This weakness
						typically occurs as a result of wanting to "fail functional" to minimize
						administration and support costs, instead of "failing safe."
