Industry peer reviews could provide insights, but I wonder if they hold as much weight as understanding the technology's vulnerabilities.

Systems compatibility could also be important, but I feel like it might come after assessing vulnerabilities. I need to think more about this.

I think vulnerabilities in the technology might be the most critical factor. If it's not secure, it could expose the organization to risks.

A, duh. Secure configuration is a no-brainer. I mean, do we really want the new tech to turn our network into a giant hacker playground? I think not.
SH

A is definitely crucial! Can't compromise on security.
AL
