Why Network Partitioning instead of others security techniques?

Network partitioning is easier than other techniques

Distributed security is too complex

Single-sign-on remains difficult to deploy

Remote procedure calls and existing mobile code make traditional security models outdated

Network partitioning is a proactive security technique

Intrusion detection is responsive or monitoring and not as easy and efficient than proactive security

Others security techniques are still complementary

Network partitioning is the natural extension of the firewall

The firewall concept is the most popular concept in security

Network partitioning is just the distribution of the firewall concept across an existing network
