It would take people listening to professionals and getting rid of several decades worth of bad habits amongst users. Same as most other places really.

I'm quite sure your average American company is just as willing to plug random shit into the internet.
Hell, there are probably hundreds of reports out there of American companies failing to secure their AWS S3 buckets, so you don't even have to plug anything into the internet.
The problem is the ironic "home grown" or "internal" security. These external attacks come after decades of fertilizing far right white politicians whose sole purpose is to dither any directed anger.
Brexit was the first to burst and despite their support of Ukraine, can at any moment capitulate to the ghost of nationalism and delusional escapism that is "white power". Americas on the verge of sinking further into the same. With those two entirely preoccupied, of course europe is next and already has the same underlying current.
Isn't Europe just following US Army's example then? A similar incident in US Army commissaries has been reported since August [1]. It only took them two full months to launch an investigation [2].
