Dmitri Alperovitch agrees with you.[0] He went on record a few months back in a podcast, and said that some of the most atrocious code he has ever seen was in security products.
I am certain he was implicitly referring, at least in part, to some of the code seen inside his past company's own code base.
Maybe because everyone else in "security" and DRM does it, so they figured this is how it's done and they should do it too?
My prior on competence of "cybersecurity" companies is very, very low.
