CISOs Take Note: Is Needless Cybersecurity Strangling Your Business?
InformationWeek, Thursday, May 1st, 2025
Building strong, resilient cybersecurity is essential. On the other hand, obsolete, redundant, and defective cybersecurity technologies can make things worse -- much worse.
There can never be too much cybersecurity, right? Wrong, says Jason Keirstead, vice president of security strategy at AI security developer Simbian. "Cybersecurity is not always a place where more is better," he observes in an online interview. "Having redundant tools in your security stack, duplicating functions, can create increased churn and workloads, causing security operations center analysts to deal with superfluous, unnecessary alerts and information."
