Research Priorities For 2009

by Greg Young  |  January 17, 2009  |  Comments Off

We just completed our start of year Gartner research offsite.  In addition to my primary commitments to continue researching network firewalls and IPS, two areas I am going to putting increased emphasis on this year are the web application firewall, and firewall policy management markets.

As we wrote in the 2008 Network Firewall Magic Quadrant, firewall policy management is an interesting emerging market.  FPM has features such as rules optimization, what-if analysis, and workflow.
