When purchasing enterprise networking solutions, it is important to consider network security and access control to prevent user data from ever being exposed. While cost, performance, and capacity are important aspects of any enterprise network systems, imporving system security is also imperative. Be sure to understand what security features a system offers and consider a full-fledged encryption appliance to reduce the risk of data exposure. Lastly, be sure to ask what tools are available to monitor the data protection environment. With minimal monitoring and management tools, hacking attempts would go unnoticed until their success, when user data is plastered around the Internet.
