Actually, I have worked with Checkpoint and BorderManager in the past as
well. But Cisco seems to have all the security bases covered - VPN,
firewall, Intrusion detection. And all of this ties in with IOS, which is
#1 in the routing market. Since I'm kind of new to the security field, what
do you guys/ladies feel are the other strong players in the security field?
I'm curious to see what everyone works with.
Thanks,
