When you're assessing network security solutions, you face two fundamental choices with dramatic consequences for protection, coverage, performance and manageability. Appliance-based solutions seek to arm organizations with visibility and control within their network environment. Cloud-based solutions promise easier setup, greater scalability, wider coverage and adaptive protection. How do you weigh the promised benefits against the potential risks? Does one option offer distinct advantages over the other?
