How do you accurately gauge the effectiveness of complex security products like intrusion prevention systems? Testing security products is a complex science, and the market place is filled with vendor claims, product reviews, analyses, and lab test reports. These reported measurements can vary widely depending on the sources, methodologies and tools used. And even then, the results may not be relevant for your environment. Whether you are going to perform your own tests, or read someone else's lab results, get a quick educational primer on the science of testing security products.
