Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't even a basic firewall or ACL
provide the same functionality? Drop the packet, drop the attack? I'm in
the wrong business if implementing a firewall can net me $millions$ by
using appropriate buzzwords.....
It sounds like the first step for such a firewall vendor would be to pay
the appropriate license fees for the Einstein name and likeness...
Then a little IP address geo-location coupled to the launch system and
you're set. Any collateral damage would be no worse than the sort that's
been caused by real anti-aircraft weapons.
