So this is, in essence, keeping people out of the network, which keeps them out of the core systems in the cloud. So there needs to be a plan as well as technology. You can't approach security by throwing tools at this or technology at this. This really becomes, what are my security requirements, what role does the network play, how do those requirements translate into particular kinds of technology?
