One thing for your ROI I remember is that we saw an improvement in bandwidth. This happened as we became less of a target for attacks (that utilize bandwidth whether successful or not).

E.g., one university has shared that they reduced their incidents by > 90% by firewalling their campus. Another university reduced their incident response staffing from 1.25 FTE to 1 FTE [10K node network] through firewallng. Do you have similar numbers you'd be willing to share? I can summarize to the group, or if you'd prefer your numbers not be widely posted, let me know that too.
