This is true arguably because the overall skill of the infosec industry
is on the decline. As one of my Canadian counterparts once said: "The
term security researcher or penetration tester really means 'can run
Nessus'". No different for the defense side.

The best bet for any company slogging the new and improved defense
mechanisms is to wrap it in a $100k pretty 2U chassis, and have insanely
stringent trial request requirements. That way, by the time someone
releases a fresh paper on how broken your detection mechanism is (like
they all are), your sales cycle has gone far enough to keep the VC's off
your back.
