Security Intelligence Services - An Oxymoron or the Final Frontier?

31.01.2002

The Yankee Group defines six distinct security intelligence services and depicts the vendor offerings in Exhibit 2. The range of services includes vulnerability and threat (V&T) information, V&T information with corrective recommendations, V&T information with recommendations specific to a corporation's infrastructure, V&T information with respect to communities of interest, geopolitical analysis, and company-specific V&T.

These services aggregate security threat information, generate recommendations to plug security holes, and allow users to customize the information they receive and have it delivered in an actionable format. This intelligence in the security world is similar to what is provided by Reuters or Bloomberg in the financial services industries.

This Report, the second of two, identifies the market participants, product offerings, and strategic directions that will lead to market dominance.
