As a result they are turning to companies like Quest who have both the expertise and the ability to provide them with these solutions in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Michael Cerick, Intellitactics VP Strategic Alliances, said that Quest had all the right credentials for launching this new service model. "This is one great decision for the customer. One decision puts two powerful resources to work for them " Quest brings exceptional experience in providing security as a service and they've selected the SAFE appliance to do it with."

According to Peter Marston, Account Manager and Quest's SIEM Product Specialist, Intellitactics SAFE appliance allows Quest to manage multiple clients from a single pane of glass regardless of where the security data collection resides; at any of Quest's nine data centers or on premise at the client location.

Additionally, the appliance is an optimal product to enable this new Managed Service model. It offers simplicity of deployment, ability to collect logs from anything located anywhere without intrusive agents, a dashboard which Quest can configure and share with clients to provide status on compliance or user access or network security posture " strengthening relationship and collaborating in the event of a security incident.
