Why Future Security Advantage Will Be Determined by Systems Integration and Trust Frameworks—Not Raw Computational Power Alone

For much of the past two decades, security advantage—whether national, institutional, or enterprise-level—has been closely associated with access to superior computational capability. Faster processors, larger data sets, more advanced algorithms, and increasingly powerful artificial intelligence models have been treated as decisive differentiators. That assumption is now reaching its limits.
