Intellitactics Positioned in Leader Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management
Reston, VA, July 14, 2005—Intellitactics announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders Quadrant in the “Magic Quadrant for Security Information and Event Management, 2H05.” According to Gartner, leaders are vendors who are performing well today, have a clear vision of market direction, and are actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the market. The report defines a leader in the security and event management market as providing technology leadership and innovation, as well as demonstrated success in consistently satisfying customer requirements for both real-time event management and security information management in large, heterogeneous environments.
“Commercial and government organizations worldwide are very serious about managing the security of critical information assets,” comments Intellitactics president and chief executive officer Randall K. Davis. “Intellitactics is proving to be an essential component for organizations implementing a risk management strategy, and we interpret our placement in the leader quadrant as further confirmation of the tremendous value we bring to the customer.”
Intellitactics provides enterprise software that combines performance for real-time threat management and the capacity to store raw data from historic and forensic analysis. The company’s flagship Intellitactics Security Manager empowers enterprises to limit risk without sacrificing business effectiveness, affordably scale security coverage enterprise-wide, and sustain a compliance environment. Intellitactics Security Reporter, released in April of this year, is an automated log monitoring and reporting application that provides a starting point for companies looking to implement a comprehensive security program.
Intellitactics has received industry recognition for its security information management products from various independent organizations. Earlier this year, Intellitactics Network Security Manager was nominated to receive the Reader Trust Award for the Best Security Management Solution. In December of 2004, Intellitactics was awarded Common Criteria certification for its Intellitactics™ NSM. Intellitactics was the first security information management vendor to apply for and earn certification as a security information management solution.
