English term or phrase: take the hit
Enterprise Antivirus DOs and DON'Ts
DO consider the suite advantage. According to Lambert, the prime AV differentiation is what vendors are bundling into their client security suites. Increasingly, as users face challenges ranging from malicious code to data loss and insecure machines connecting to the corporate network, they want to solve them in a single sweep, not with point products. "Every product you put on the machine will slow it down more, add another console to manage and add another license and something you have to buy," Lambert says. "Why ***take the hit*** several times when you can get a less expensive product with more capabilities from one vendor?"
