Draw up specifications for your monitoring software and select the right tools

These days, information gathering takes on a whole new dimension: paradoxically, as information multiplies, it can become increasingly difficult to find. Not because it doesn't exist, but because it's drowned in the mass.

Intelligence practitioners regularly use software to automate all or part of the information gathering process, and sometimes even its processing. But also to enable information to be disseminated in push mode or made accessible in pull mode.

Selecting the right monitoring software is a complex process, as all monitoring software has both technical and business aspects.

However, the IT Departments involved in the selection of many software products are generally unfamiliar with the specific features of intelligence software, which is not part of the standard landscape of applications deployed in companies.

This fact sheet will help you draw up the specifications for your monitoring software.
