Traditional IT does that by constructing fool-proof procedures.
That's very, very difficult, because fools are so ingenious.  ;-)

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving
to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe
trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe
is winning.                                              - Rich Cook
