Why Security Tool Consolidation Can’t Fix Application Blindspot

Security tool consolidation fails because traditional security tools operate outside application runtime where attacks actually execute. While consolidation can reduce complexity and centralize alerts, it cannot fix the fundamental blindspot: WAFs, EDR, and SIEM platforms lack visibility into actual code execution, data flows, and application logic. The solution isn't more consolidation or new tools, but enriching existing security investments with Application Detection and Response (ADR) to provide runtime intelligence from inside applications.
