The biggest security outcome has been reducing the noise in our existing protective systems (NGFWs) by over 90% and blocking almost all malware infections (also over 90%) before they even have a chance to get a foothold. While it has not (and should not) negate the need for other security layers such as NGFWs, email security appliances, and endpoint protection software, it has reduced the noise and load on those systems to the point that we have been able to reduce the load and eventually the cost/capacity of those layers to provide even more cost effective protection for the entire environment.
