in reply to how could i make "them" understand that security IS important ?

I find myself in similar situations from time to time. In the end all you can do is state your case as clearly as possible. Outline the consiquences clearly. Ultimately, it is the Boss's decision. If he/she decides not to follow your advice, just make sure your case was clearly documented so that if things do go wrong you have proof.

You're not a manager so don't worry about management things. It's not worth the stress.

    I wouldn't worry about management things, either. But even when you're well documented and can proof that you've told them before, and that you've been right all along, in the end it's you who has clean the mess - because you're paid for it, and, at least in my case, because you're the only one in the company who can do it...

    And this is usually a case for a loud "OERK" :)
