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.”
