Are single-vendor, integrated solutions that provide security and site-to-site and site-to-user functionality available.realistic?
Sure, I think you see solutions like this from Riverbed Technology Inc., as well as other vendors today. The question is really about security and site-to-site and site-to-user functionality. These solutions are all highly secure today and have excellent site-to-site functionality, but the site-to-user functionality may be a stretch for many of these solutions today just because they’re typically appliance-based, there hasn’t been a lot of development at the host agent level as far as I know. There are some potential use cases for remote access applications that would be interesting. But overall at the heart of this question is really what can we except to emerge from vendors in this space and who is going to show leadership in this market? Frankly, I think you’re going to see vendors in this space diversify their capabilities even further in the future and do so rapidly. By talking to a number of vendors in this space, you can figure who is going to lead that next wave of technology.
