Whitelist-only works until it doesn't. All an attacker has to do is compromise one of the whitelisted apps (e.g. a web browser) and they will have infiltrated the device and perhaps the network. Certain institutions can tolerate operating as a digital supermax prison (law firms, banks, Government). Most can't. The future is likely some mix of network defense, whitelist/blacklist management, traditional AV for each device, VMs (less effective with migration of apps to cloud), and lots of user education.
