IBM Security Systems presents security intelligence as a multi-dimensional approach to securing information resources. Security intelligence provides comprehensive insight by collecting, normalizing, and analyzing data from users, applications, and infrastructure. This real-time monitoring allows organizations to understand normal behavior and detect anomalies to identify security incidents. Security intelligence solutions from IBM offer extensive data sources, deep intelligence, and exceptionally accurate and actionable insights.

Statement of Good Security Practices: IT system security involves protecting systems and information through prevention, detection and response to improper
access from within and outside your enterprise. Improper access can result in information being altered, destroyed or misappropriated or can result in damage to
or misuse of your systems, including to attack others. No IT system or product should be considered completely secure and no single product or security measure
can be completely effective in preventing improper access. IBM systems and products are designed to be part of a comprehensive security approach, which will
25 necessarily involve additional operational procedures, and may require other systems, products or services to be most effective. IBM DOES NOT © 2012 IBM Corporation
