Feature-rich, works as advertised, and sends decrypted traffic at close-to-line speed to products that can't decrypt
The ability to do SSL chaining is most valuable. It provides the ability to send decrypted traffic at close-to-line speed to products that can't decrypt. So, it can take the decrypted traffic and send it to your IPS or your other tools to be able to see what's inside of that traffic for DLP or malicious content detection. That's the whole beauty of it. It was probably the elephant in the room for the longest in terms of SSL decryption. It can get the high band, especially for places that had a lot of decryption to do, such as big finance companies, big telcos, etc. It is a really good product. It has different features and things built into it. Feature-wise, they're the elephant in the room.
