I use Seccuris Security out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.  They have done an excellent job for me.

    Hi
    
    We are thinking about outsourcing our Intrusion Detection System (IDS) 
    function.  Our security group currently is not doing this...but our CIO 
    would like to implement this process towards the end of this year.  We
    just 
    do not have the resources within our security group to do...our plate is
    too 
    full.
    
    Anybody using a managed IDS Service that they are happy with and would 
    recommend to me?   There are lots of companies that do this....(yes...I
    did 
    google search thing).   I just want some personal recommendations...so I
    can 
    start my short list...and reduce some of the fluff from salesman.  My
    budget 
    is in the 150K range.  We are a unix and win2k mixed platform shop.
