Hello all, Symantec is starting a free pilot program for Educational institutions around to world to compare their Firewall and IDS incident data. In specific the pilot will allow for educational facilities to contrast their own Incident data with that of other educational facilities, and the rest of the world, on a near real-time basis. With this reporting, pilot users will be able to obtain detailed statistics on how their organization contrasts the rest of the world. They will be able to run granular reports, including reports on specific attackers and event types (IDS and Firewall). These reports will provide a comparison of attacks targetting your own network, contrasted with those seen by other users within the DeepSight Threat Management System. The DeepSight Threat Management System currently monitors data from educational institutions in over 50 countries. In addition to this pilot users get full (free) access to the DeepSight Threat Management System . More can be read about this system at: http://enterprisesecurity.symantec.com/products/products.cfm?ProductID=158&EID=0 The basic requirements for this Pilot are as follows: 1.
