Diocletian, Constantine, Bedouin Sayings, and Network Defense
summary
Claim: treat networks like late Roman defense — build sensors, hold key assets, and move a rapid response rather than relying on a single choke point. Evidence: intrusion detection median time is 229 days median detection, site scans find surprises like 25 devices with Telnet open and forgotten management ports, and simple network segmentation plus host hardening actually raises survivability. Recommendation: deploy intrusion detection, spread protections across hosts and subnets, and practice defense in depth.
