Light Reading today published a report that sets in motion the development of another interactive directory, this time covering network security appliances: NEW! Who Makes What: Security Appliances.
As with other Who Makes What projects, the report invites readers to comment on the way Light Reading intends to classify security products, and to point out omissions in a list of suppliers.

The results of this exercise will be used to create a comprehensive directory of security appliances on Light Reading, similar to the Ethernet and IP Services Software directories launched this week (see Light Reading Launches Directories).
