Locks, SOCs and a cat in a box: What Schrödinger can teach us about cybersecurity

The article uses Schrödinger's cat thought experiment as a metaphor for cybersecurity blind spots, arguing that organizations cannot understand their true security posture without visibility into their environments. Attackers deliberately exploit the lack of monitoring and awareness that allows vulnerabilities and compromises to remain undetected.

Why it matters: Security operations center (SOC) teams and infrastructure owners need comprehensive monitoring to detect threats; unobserved systems create exploitable gaps that adversaries actively leverage.
