Diversity increases your attack surface however. You rather want redundancy and easy deployment or rollback of your clients and servers


Diversity means a successful attack will take out part of your operation.

Monoculture means a successful attack will take out all of your operation.

Cyber attacks rarely take down stuff directly. Rather attackers will establish a bridge head into your organization first and inspect the network and gather data for further (phishing) attacks.

Diversity only means more opportunities to install bridge heads.
