EVALUATING IT SECURITY OPTIONS
Issues for IT Managers
Assessing IT security claims – especially in the all-important area of perimeter security – is difficult at the best of times. Vendors in this area often exaggerate their offerings (sometimes spectacularly!).
It can be very difficult to compare products side-by-side. And compounding this problem is the lack of clarity in the terms that are used. It’s almost impossible to make rational comparisons between the different offerings available.
This brochure has been written for IT managers who aren’t security specialists, but who want to make good decisions about IT security. You won’t find any references to specific vendors or specific products in here: this is not about promoting one solution, or even one type of solution in preference to another.
Rather, this guide is about giving you the tools for evaluating your options and making good decisions. It’s not about what the answers might be.
