A trip to any major cybersecurity conference reveals vendors promoting the latest, cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions, and many people willing to pay top dollar for them. But a closer look shows that the average user, and even some small businesses, are being left behind.

The majority of cybersecurity tools are created for the industry itself, which only exacerbates the cybersecurity skills shortage that’s been going on for years. Many of these solutions are so complex that a cybersecurity staff needs years of experience and expertise to operate them. Small businesses are at a significant disadvantage here, which only increases their security risk. The expertise required also creates a higher barrier to entry for cybersecurity jobs. It’s similar to a drugstore offering only prescription medications when most customers need over-the-counter (OTC) options.
