Security through obscurity is a great idea and works to slow down, prevent and even stop and attack from going forward for all kinds of systems whether is be an animal and their camouflage or a computer system holding PII with a vacuous name. Where the utility breaks down is when that is your ONLY means or layer of security. For example my house is hard to see from the road…so an opportunist thief might never see it and so just pass on by. But say this criminal finds my house by some fortuitous means. Well now he has to get past my locks and then the and if I am home, the bullets that may fly his way. And then he will have to try and get away before the police arrive. |
