IDS: Value of IDS, ROI

[Jason Patel <patel1210 () yahoo com>]

I was wondering how big companies CIO show their executives Return of investment on IDS. What is the monitoring 
strategy for IDS alerts. I am trying to figure monitoring strategy and how to show my executive that how important job 
this is, but cant come up with a convincing solution. Anyhelp is highly appreciated. 

Thanks,

Jason
