Prism To Expand Operations In India

Prism Microsystems , a provider of security information and event management (SIEM) technology, has announced plans to expand its presence in India with the opening of a campus at the Rajajinagar Industrial Estate in Bangalore. The new campus will be a centre for product development for its SIEM solution, EventTracker, and also provide back-office, sales and marketing support to the company’s US headquarters to meet increased demand in Asia and Australia.

Fuelled by increasingly aggressive and indiscriminate cyber attacks as well as stringent compliance regulations, the SIEM market is expected to grow to over $1 billion globally by 2010, a growth rate of about 25-35% year-on-year, according to estimates by analyst firms.
