I've been following this thread and also had quickly responded to the "feed back" request at the end of the article. I believe we're all in agreement that there were fundemental technological errors in the article which the Gartner analyst then reached an inaccurate prediction. Much of it had to do with the fundemental understanding of the purpose of IDS. Notice they did not distinguish between HIDS or NIDS. If they had made that distinction and how/why they are used, Gartner may not have arrived at their false prediction. I liken this to an old commercial many many years ago. The line went something like this: "When EF Hutton talks, people listen". I'm going to have to turn my hear aid down whenever I hear another bold prediction by Gartner. (No I don't really have a hearing aid.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attend the Black Hat Briefings & Training, July 28 - 31 in Las Vegas, the world's premier technical IT security event! 10 tracks, 15 training sessions, 1,800 delegates from 30 nations including all of the top experts, from CSO's to "underground" security specialists.
