I’ve finally been able to convince our leadership to pursue swapping out our IPS and ASA’s for a set of next gen 
firewalls.  We are still in the evaluation phase and as a part of our evaluations we are asked by senior leadership to 
quert other universities to get a barometer of what is being used.  If you would (and you can PM me) let me know if you 
have a NGFW and what it is (not needing specifics)  It will help us with our decision.  The 3 we looked at were Palo 
Alto, Check Point, and Cisco Firepower.

Appreciate any responses in advance!
