"The complexity is staggering - and attackers exploit the gaps between those tools. The push to rationalise is not just about budget; it's about coherence."
"Integration theatre is the cyber security equivalent of a Potemkin village: application programming interfaces (APIs) stitched together with no shared data model."
"Genuine platforms reduce mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR). Theatre does not."
"If the whole stack collapses, it was never truly integrated - it was just co-located."
Organizations currently manage an average of 83 security solutions from 29 vendors, leading to complexity that attackers exploit. While unifying security platforms can streamline operations, it may also create risks such as single points of catastrophic failure. Integration theatre, where solutions appear connected but lack genuine integration, can mislead organizations. Effective platforms should demonstrate seamless data flow and automated responses. Vendors must be scrutinized for how they handle module failures to ensure true integration and reliability in security operations.
