It helps ensure that they have a stronger security posture. It is preventive medicine If you have DNS Security in place. You will be happy you had it. If you don't have it, you may never need it.

"GajShield Next Generation Firewall would be improved with the addition of a load-balancing feature."
"I wish that the Palos had better system logging for the hardware itself."

"Currently, they don't have email protection. They can maybe add it in the future. Currently, if you want to do so, you need to go with another solution."
"The performance of the Panorama interface needs to be improved. It tends to be very sluggish at times."

They could train their employees better."
