Hello,
My customer has up to 5000 network users. But they only have budget (this year) to protect 50 VIP users on their laptops and 200 important users for network communication. We suggested to have Endpoint Prevent and Endpoint Monitor for those 50 VIP users, but we need to know what to do about network users. Although the "easy" way is to license 200 users of Network Prevent and Network Monitor, we don't know how this is gonna work.
Network Prevent and Network Monitor would be placed at perimeter, since those 200 users are not in the same VLAN and change their location from one to another without notice; they are mixed with the other 4800 network users. Network Prevent and Network Monitor have the ability of "knowing" which 200 users have to inspect? Will Network Prevent and Network Monitor work for 5000 users although it is licensed for only 200? Will Network Prevent and Network Monitor protect the first 200 users passing by (even if they are not the ones we want to protect) and let the other 4800 send any information they want?
Maybe, in the next year, my customer will be able to increase licenses on Network Prevent and Network Monitor, but today they only want to protect 200 users.
What can be done to accomplish this? It is better to forget Network Prevent and Network Monitor and suggest Endpoint for the 200 users?
Thanks in advance.
