Para. 2 - Yes...but notice how few people or organizations need private non-cyber security. And even when they do, it's usually a tiny number of modest-training, modest-pay security guards. If half a dozen bandits with automatic weapons started robbing a Tiffany's - is Tiffany's expected to have (or foot the bill for) a security team armed & ready for that? Or would public (city / county / state) law officers be expected to arrive ASAP, and take over?

Para. 4 - Lordy, yes. Though that needs to be competently done. Starting with setting up a computer version of Underwriters Laboratories - that could drive the sellers of Internet of T*rds crap out of business (at least in the U.S.), revoke Experian's right to operate a database full of sensitive financial information, etc.
