Innovation=risks --- Innovative ideas always carry some sort of risk as we move from the known to the unknown but as the saying goes "Prevention is better than cure". In the context of cybersecurity and from a cost perspective, the release of new products and versions of a product with little to no risk would cost more financially as more would have to be invested before the product is released into the market. This cost would then be passed on to the consumer, which might affect demand due to affordability. Therefore, "release now, patch later" approach may be best for the business but not for protection/security.
