the effectiveness of the use of weapons, be they offensive or defensive, is far from certain in cyberspace. First, defensive weapons are not sure. Researching an ever-stronger protection, let alone an absolute one, is futile. Protections such as firewalls or antivirus require extensive programming and computing resources and, remain fallible.
