• Research into the current cyber security environment reveals an industry wrought with confusion. Patches are released to fix patches that ultimately fail to protect systems. The primary reason the current patch-on-patch approach does not work is hackers stay one step ahead of the developers. They find a way through the new patch, often as the patch is released, and sometimes before it is released, to the public.

• It is not an anomaly that hackers target software, it's easy. Why only the software? Unlike software, hardware is impossible to emulate. It is no mistake that throughout history the greatest encryption devices were hardware based.

• With the advances in parallel computing, faster chipset's and computing architecture, and more powerful development systems, brute force attacks allow hackers to break data protected by today's security solutions much faster - often in minutes. Most security applications today are founded on the principal of layers of fixed digital algorithms that are not only vulnerable, but they slow down the throughput timing from point-to-point. Basically, security today adds more layers and sub-nets that contributes more to the problem of security than to the solution.

• There is no single security solution for the Internet known to man today. Otherwise there would only be one type of equipment on the market. The fact that the Internet Providers are distributed world wide and sell bandwidth globally has changed the direction of Internet Security toward a point to point solution. The road to a point to point solution has to start somewhere and that starting place is 4^thDT™ Security.

• Security and Privacy go hand in hand, however, keep in mind that taking away rights and privacy does not make us safe. Criminal behavior, terrorism and social misconduct are active in all forms of social structures be it a free republic as the USA, socialism as in Europe, communism as China, totalitarianism as many other minority ruled countries. Giving up our privacy rights in any social structure does not make us safe, in fact, it makes us more vulnerable to criminal behaviors than ever before by incorporating back doors for those and others monitoring all parts of our privacy. 4^thDT™ Security closes all back doors to unauthorized access!

• Security is not a product, it is a process which includes social behavior and uses technology products to practice the policies set forth.  Many CSO's and risk management analysts look at security as a feature that is included when they outsource their IT requirements. Would you outsource your families dynamic core stability to a an outsider whose behavior you have little or no influence on?  Many outsource security type firms have many fine print clauses in the contract that will exonerate them from any consequences or accountability.

• "The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them." (Albert Einstein).  Today we are experiencing this not only in the security industry but also in the automotive, banking and other industries.    4^thDT™ Security is a new company to the security industry and incorporated a different level of thinking to solving some of the root causes of Internet security.  The 4^thDT™ Security approach represents a paradigm shift in the way Internet security is implemented today.
