Measuring Return on Security Investment (ROSI) can be tricky since it is difficult to determine if not being compromised can be attributed to good tools, or poor intrusion attempts. Nonetheless, 86% of enterprises are adopting IDPS to improve their security stance.
Prices and feature sets for IDP Systems vary wildly; on a price per Gigabit of throughput, the least expensive solutions cost half that of the most expensive, yet offered no less feature-functionality. Wise purchasing decisions can save the enterprise tens of thousands of dollars.
