cybersecurity-economics

Where the money, incentives, and tradeoffs of security actually live. This tag covers the economics of defending systems: how the cost of finding flaws is changing, why most vulnerabilities never get exploited, and how to allocate scarce attention across an effectively infinite backlog. Expect analysis of risk-based prioritization, the shifting value of discovery versus remediation, and the market forces that shape what defenders and attackers choose to do.

The Security Treadmill: When Finding Flaws Becomes Free, the Scarce Skill Is Deciding What's Worth Fixing

Autonomous AI systems are collapsing the cost of finding software vulnerabilities toward zero, making known-flaw supply nearly infinite. The scarce, high-leverage work has shifted from discovery to deciding which of the roughly 6% of ever-exploited CVEs actually deserve a fix.
