Expensive security tools don’t mean you’re secure.
They detect — but rarely stop the breach.
Real security = denying execution.

Enterprises spend $$$ on reactive tools like SIEMs & EDR. But most malware executes before detection.
That’s not protection — that’s logging an attack already in motion.

Logs don’t stop hackers. AV and SIEM are great — but reactive.
Most breaches succeed because we let unknown code run first, then chase it.
Prevention. Not detection. That’s the shift we need.

Let’s talk real-world breaches
Target had threat detection — but the alert was missed.
$162M lost
Equifax had tools — but missed one patch.
147M exposed
MGM had layers of defense — one phone call took it down.
Millions lost
Not tech failures, Design failures.
