Red herring. Price points on techniques that actually reduce your attack surface do not make techniques that don't magically gain abilities.

Go ahead. Disable SSH, firewalls, and VPNs and just run loggers all day. I'm sure you'll feel super duper secure then. Heuristics never fail!

My rate is $150 an hour and I will create the most perfect and secure and tiniest attack surface for your brand new logging cluster.
