this is really a great report and i am sure lot of effort has gone into this. catch rates and perforamance is really caught my eye.
Catch rates are really disappointing across the board except for ISS. i do understand that client attack detection is new, but even the server side catch rates are awfully low. i understand that these are expensive boxes. i did not see any vendor responses on low catch rate and performace. is this due to technology limitation or is it that devices tested are not up to mark?
