Searching for Vendor Information (without getting a ton of sales calls)
It is often helpful to research a Vendor and their products before contacting the company, (when you contact the company, you often are inundated by sales calls). The assignment is to gather information on a provider of security/privacy products and write a short recommendation document. Include in your report:
- types of services this vendor provides
- facts about this company that would lead to their reliability as a provider
- how they compare to other similar vendors (you will need to look at a few companies to gather this information).
One very useful publication is ICD Research Reports. This is found using the library technology databases. (PDF ATTACHED TO QUESTION)
