« Wishing You A Year of Log Bliss... | Main | HIPAA: Report Shows Most Complaints Not Investigated - IT Compliance »
THe SIEM market will begin to diverge in 2007 according to Amrit Williams - ex-Gartner analyst. His final sentence reflects what we have been seeing for the past two years:
Log management will break out as it own class of products and will see the biggest growth as folks realize that at the end of the day all they really wanted was a syslog server on steroids.
Kind of. What customers come to realize quickly is the intrinsic value log data has and the broad range of answers it can give them across IT functions. From IT Opertations through Compliance and, of course, Security. They want much more than just a "syslog server on steroids".
In looking at the business cases and RFPs what most customers are looking to address is the entire log life-cycle (collect, alert, store, report, share) against specific applications - be they compliance or controls validation - to name just two.
Either way, Amrit is right in identifying that the market is diverging.
