English term

failed security audit

English Marketing Computers (general)
[a vendor instructing sales people]

Find out whether the customer has any security solution in place and if they are centrally managing them or managing them system-by-system.
A failed security audit is a sure fire driver for a TAMOS-like product.

Explanation below

It means that if a company's security systems have failed a detailed security check, possibly carried out for statutory reasons or as a condition of their contract with a customer, they are more likely to want to purchase the TAMOS product.

(BTW I think "sure-fire" should be hypenated - might make the whole think less ambiguous!)
