It seems legit to consider propagation of undirected malware as at least partially bounded by heterogeneity. In comparison, it didn't take long for researchers to successfully develop malware that would compromise a homogenous AMI network..

Other techniques can do more to increase the level of effort. Defending targeted attacks is a higher bar. Focus on prevention alone is probably a mistake.
