Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
I would humbly argue that being proactive is just part of it--but the problem is that many of the challenges are beyond our control though no matter what mitigating efforts we undertake--as eiptomized by the notion that there are "Trade Offs" .

Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
No Expense must be spared for security--why is that even an issue?   Look at all the challenging times we've deliberated right here in TT?

Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
As I reflected upon your thought, what was bothersome was the title--about trade offs--There should be no compromise on security--right?

Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
Maybe it's more cost effective to develop AI that can minimize defects by identifying bugs before they're deployed?

Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
@mhhf1ve: It does make sense. The question is whether it is possible to achieve zero-defect software given the volumes that are generated.

Re: Cybersecurity Trade Offs
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure -- so minimizing your attack surface seems like a more cost effective strategy than trying to develop superhuman AI to outwit attackers. That makes sense to me.

Cost will be a factor in the future but as the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure.

Re: Not immediately but soonish
<<The zero-day exploit problem will be getting worse because it doesn't demand a high level of skill among malicious hackers; just lots of cheap space and time (both of which keep getting cheaper) and some simple brute-force methods>> I am surprised by this comment from you, @John Barnes. I wrote an article earlier about this topic and the challenge is that these exploits don't have signatures, they target specific vulnerabilities that have not been patched, which should surely require a lot of skill to pinpoint. AI is also not working against them because there isn't enough data on them to train the AI engine. I am not sure what your point is.
