Unlike the past, advanced threats today are highly sophisticated and stealthful. Alongside that, mainstream protection technologies have also evolved from primarily signature based filtering to various forms of advanced, non-signature centric detection. Unfortunately, the fundamental is still about detection. With millions of new advanced threats being developed and proliferated daily in the internet, most of such threats are not detectable in the first place.

Non-detection centric strategies become critical. Such strategies should be deployed to augment the chosen detection technologies to complete the protection framework.
