Which is exactly why Anitian started an on-site managed security service. Most firms cannot afford a full-time analyst, so one of ours can come in once a week (or once a month) and review all the logs and look for trouble. Its less expensive than full-time managed care like Counterpane and its all right in front of you where you can see it. No remote access from unknown people in a data center is required. ----------------------------------- Andrew Plato, CISSP President / Principal Consultant Anitian Corporation (503) 644-5656 office (503) 201-0821 cell http://www.anitian.com <http://www.anitian.com/> ------------------------------------ -----Original Message----- From: brvarinat_private [mailto:brvarinat_private] Sent: Wed 8/28/2002 9:50 PM To: crimeat_private Cc: Subject: Re: CRIME Checkpoint versus Sonicwall For most companies, hiring 24/7 analysts is just not possible....But outsourcing is. Companies like Counterpane will monitor your network and alert you to "activity". Consider it ADT for your network. A lot of companies can't justify the cost but have no problems paying decent sums for senior citizens, ex-cons, and obese people to guard their buildings. Go figure.

But you have to be willing to invest the effort in hiring security analysts to look at the data the IDS is generating. \
