IBM Security and McAfee have been joined by 14 other firms to form the OASIS consortium to tackle interoperability .
Under the OASIS banner the firms will work on the Open Cybersecurity Alliance (OCA) to try to increase the interoperability between products to reduce those problems and share information around threats and the best responses.
Carol Geyer, chief development officer of OASIS said: “Today, organisations struggle without a standard language when sharing data between products and tools, We have seen efforts emerge to foster data exchange, but what has been missing is the ability for each tool to transmit and receive these messages in a standardised format, resulting in more expensive and time-consuming integration costs. The aim of the OCA is to accelerate the open sharing concept making it easier for enterprises to manage and operate.”
