Just another example of an overextension of technology in a scenario where applying a proper harness would suffice.
Reminiscent of the early days of tax automation where importing a W2 cost hundreds of dollars until people realized typing in 6 boxes worth of data was easy and paying the automation fee ate up their entire tax return.

This is a natural next step from contemporary security and disaster response. Threat response and continuity planning which both incorporate plans that respond to threats were once the primary objective of organizations. They are still valid, but a more modern and proactive approach includes mitigating the risk at the source.
