Is 2015 the biggest year ever for network security? Do you see this trend slowing down?

We expect to see record spending on network security in 2015. I don't see the trend slowing down. Projections show significant increases in future years. There have been so many high-profile security breaches in both the federal and commercial space in recent years, and no one wants to be that next headline. I believe that security will continue to be the top priority for our customers, both federal and commercial, for the foreseeable future.

Describe the benefits of the new website and how it will help customers.

We wanted to create an enjoyable user experience with compelling, relevant content that helps our customers address their business challenges. The new website also provides customers with easy access to Force 3's unique expertise and thought leadership.

Any other rebranding or special security strategy from Force 3 in store for 2015 that you could share?

Yes, we are looking forward to expanding our SupportPlus services offerings to include additional manufacturer maintenance delivery. We'll also soon be rolling out new services offerings including InsightPlus -- Force 3's new business analytics offering with dashboard reporting; new optimization services; and consulting services based around security information and event management (SIEM) technology.

Also, look for new services and solutions from our Next Gen overlay team, focused on software-defined networking and the ability to securely deploy, in the coming year.
