IBM and Cybertap LLC
March 8, 2014
Short honk: At a security conference last week, a rumor floated around that IBM purchased Cybertap LLC. I did some poking around and found convoluted wording on a LinkedIn profile that suggests the deal is done. Public information about Cybertap, based on a precursor technology, is scarce. The LinkedIn profile, which may require registration or a fee, is at http://linkd.in/1n4P7ee. An interview with one of the founders of Cybertap is available in my Search Wizards Speak series at http://bit.ly/1exL1Fg. Our DeeperQI report series has additional information available on a fee basis. IBM owns i2 Group, a firm that tapped the resources of ArnoldIT prior to its purchase by IBM. In my opinion, the Cybertap technology is excellent. Watson is a swing for the fences. Cybertap makes sales to a specific market. IBM needs more Cybertaps and fewer game show winners.
