I have read in a few places over the internet, that cyber-security has become a top priority today but there is a conspiracy that the Service Providers of cybersecurity are also responsible for a part of that demand. The analogy is apparently similar to the conspiracy of Pharmaceutical companies putting the brakes on research of cheap medicines, for example, to fight cancer so that more expensive treatments like chemo are still viable and in demand in the market.
It is also hard to argue the fact that the hackers are responsible for those cyber security providers' bread and butter, and they would never develop a software to negate all kinds of hacking which would prevent any further possibilities for demand (once everyone has it). In other words, there is always a virus which can bypass an AV which makes the software developer to release newer versions, thereby making customers buy/upgrade to the same.
How much of the above is true? Do you think there is the slightest possibility of the above happening, even without your knowledge? Cheers.
