Considerations for Evaluating Network Security Technologies

For those looking at implementing network security solutions (particularly new technologies), the evaluation process can be confusing, expensive, and drag on past project deadlines. Beyond the references of trusted sources, finding a solution usually defaults to checking the proverbial box at the lowest possible cost. Whichever security solution can solve the issue (regulatory or policy), albeit at its bare minimum, and allow the organization to move on to other issues is often “good enough.”
