Most entry-level cyber security products evolved from the IT and communications security industry. Geared to defend against random Internet malware such as viruses and worms, these platforms struggle in the cyber era, because they focus too much on putting sentries near entry points to networks. In addition, they lack strong command and control, being a disparate group of pinpointed solutions, each specializing in a single aspect of security such as anti-virus, anti-spam, firewall etc.

While all these are necessary tools for a comprehensive cyber defense, they are not optimal as a security platform basis, either by design or by defense philosophy.
