Table 22-2 summarizes the characteristics of some of the security solutions<br />

mentioned earlier <strong>and</strong> compares them to each other. This should help anyone<br />

who needs to devise a security strategy to determine what combination of<br />

solutions achieves a desired level of protection.<br />
