Low cost HID based IDS system

Hi, I just wanted to ask if anyone out there had some ideas in regards to deploying a low cost HID based IDS system. The problem I have is that a few of our clients are quiet small and whilst I would love to deploy a NID out to all of them they just can't justify that sort of cost. I need to set up a managed type of IDS service that is centrally controlled by us and has a low cost per month to all of our clients. My plan would be to use HID type server sensors where needed and have them all feeding information back to a console that is centrally managed. The per server cost is then low enough to keep clients interested and the centralized console cost is split over multiple clients on a monthly basis. I can see that they would all be happy paying those sorts of costs. Although, I don't want to deploy this if it is not likely work in a full production environment, and provide accurate timely results to the central console. Has anyone else set up something similar to this? Can anyone see any problems or and alternative solution? I realise that there is a huge amount of variables that dictate the the configuration and requirements for a system such as this, but I am looking for some general ideas and discussion from people that have a lot more knowledge than me with this type of deployment. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance Zach ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRUSION PREVENTION: READY FOR PRIME TIME?
