Thinking Differently About Security
summary
Argues for concrete shifts: build resilient infrastructure instead of hiring more patchers, automate situational awareness with standards like security content automation protocol, and teach secure development across curricula. Gives striking metrics—87% found internally, 3% by researchers, 10% by customers—and notes attack-surface realities (wireless access turns a handful of operators into a billion potential entry points). Proposes self-aware, defensive components and pragmatic prioritization of scarce engineering resources.
