Advanced automation and powerful traffic controls have improved application security
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support is something that definitely could be improved in F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only]. I mean HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, as well as security for them too. For F5 BIG-IP [Private Offer Only] to have better support for them would include load balancing, but also better WAF (Web Application Firewall) support for these two protocols. Improving the mentioned HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 support and the GUI would be beneficial. If they improve those things and add machine learning and AI, I want it to have some kind of AI on the box because everyone is going to AI, and they have to add some AI security to be able to check the traffic using AI models. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 protocol support, AI, the GUI to be changed, and inline AI where the device downloads pre-built AI models from a SaaS cloud to check the traffic for security is something I think is very needed because using AI models as a replacement for signatures will be better. I think WAF signatures are a thing of the past. I would also like to see HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 in the future as additional features, and anything else I would improve would definitely include HTTP/2 and HTTP/3.

Centralized email and file backups have protected long-term data and simplify user recoveries
I think Veritas Alta Recovery Vault can be improved by changing their license model and being more flexible. Currently, they are charging us for the size of the backup storage, while some other solutions claim to have unlimited backup storage. The pricing is increasing heavily. Since it is an enterprise solution, it is okay that it should be expensive, but they need to enhance their license model because they are selling only for a minimum of 1,000 Office 365 users. For a small environment, this is not applicable. Additionally, they are providing only 2TB per user, so I need to purchase extra storage since the default storage that comes with the normal user license is not enough. They need to enhance their pricing and licensing model. The issue I face with Veritas Alta Recovery Vault is that if I need to move from their service to other solutions, there is no clear idea about the grace period to migrate the backup data to another solution, and it relies only on the user. This is also one more concern; if I want to go with them and buy their solution, I need to be careful because it feels like a one-way ticket.
