RE: Entercept HIDS Question

The problem with CSA and Windows 2003 is that Cisco Works, which is used
to manage all the agents, does not run on 2003, only 2000. Having an
agent on a 2003 box should not be problem.

I would love to see how Entercept and CSA compare to Symantec's stuff.
If I would ever get some spare time, that would be a great project.

Does anyone know if the CSA runs on Windows2003, or if it will
anytime soon? Has anyone compared that product to Symantec ITA 3.6
or HIDS 4.1?
