"Cyber Security" is more subjective than objective. By that, I mean the decision of what should be shared/not-blocked, and what should be kept secret/private/blocked is more of a case-by-case context-based decision, highly dependent on the individual users/participants in a specific system that it's designed for. And, that is more of an opinionated judgement-call by an aggregate of individuals, instead of a single "team"/group of a specific category. Therefore, an aggregate of individuals can usually come up with an aggregate of different elements to address the aggregate of different problems with the whole system. And therefore, working as individuals (not as a team) does not qualify as an "anti-social" characteristic. After all, all groups of people are always composed of individuals with varying degrees of both Individual and Collective goals. Individuals are good at addressing individual problems, and teams are good at addressing collective problems. Neither of which, should be considered "anti-social". After all, aren't they working on the same problem(s) that everyone wants fixed? It seems to me, that people's concept of what "anti-social" really is, is what's in question here.
