• Bandwidth and storage limitation and the political ‘battle of the bandwidth’

• Consultants and systems integrators are pushing “old” solutions

• Fear of technology challenging current position, i.e. job security, of security officers

• Fear of being ‘locked-in’ to only one supplier of security (Less)
