>From what I understand of the technology, they only accommodate external
threats. They don't provide protection against internal -> internal or
internal -> external threats. Perhaps someone from Forescout could
comment on this "limitation".
Additionally, to say "100% accuracy" implies that they properly
interpret 100% of the attacks (100% "precision" as another poster
explained it). Unlikely.

It
claims to have a 100% accuracy , no false positives. I am rather
skeptical,
but I was wondering if anyone here has any expertise using or evaluating
this.
