Some in the security community argue that a lack of diversity is security vulnerability. For example, Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers have about 95% share of the market. What security risk does this level of market control introduce? Suppose there are 3 browsers with equal market share - does this reduce or eliminate the vulnerability?

    Answer and Explanation:

    This control of the market introduces cybersecurity threats due to the monopoly of the software. Due to the presence of more than 95% of people on two internet browsers, this increases the risk of people getting trapped.

    Thus if the number of browsers would increase to three this will reduce the risk but it will not mitigate the problem, because still there will monopoly of the software, present in the market.
