WHY IS PREVENTATIVE SECURITY SO DIFFICULT?

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

While tools for detecting vulnerabilities are plentiful, there are very few tools that seek to preventively eliminate full classes of vulnerabilities. Preventative tooling is complex because often big tech giants are the only ones equipped with the resources to address the root causes, but they are not incentivized to aid their competitors, environments differ, and new standards struggle to garner support. AI tooling may aid in allowing for more catered automations, but it is unlikely to fully eliminate issues.
