It honestly feels really weird that going to the CIO would even be in question at that point. Would the CIO really want shielding like that in the organization? Hopefully not, hopefully he trusting everyone to report up when they see something.
I assume the CIO employed the IT Director? That can make it tricky, because it can sound like you're implying that he was an idiot for recruiting an idiot. You need to tread carefully here.
Good point. I got the impression that the layer below the CIO picked him.

I did make my boss say that once. We were on good terms, he knew he had screwed up. Worst hire at the bank in a decade. It was ridiculous. He was embarassed, we laughed about it a lot.

Not really? You employ someone based on what their credentials etc are...the whole point of a probation period is to check if they are actually fit for the job? And in this case it sounds like this guy really isn't fit for the job...
They go of what he said. He told us he was very strict with security and giving rights. The CIO has the ultimate say but we are part of the process of hiring our boss was well.

Yeah that's what I was meaning - I included that in Credentials, sorry for not clarifying more
And yeah, Like SAM said, he lied to you in the interview, and has now undermined any existing security policies...surely this in itself is enough to say bye bye to him?

Sounds like at least a chat with the big boss is in order.
