Joe,

If you meant to ask whether SEC is still used as a correlation engine 
for Prelude, I don't really know. About a year ago I exchanged some 
mails with people working on Prelude and asked about the current status 
of SEC+Prelude integration, and here is their answer:

So it is hard to tell whether anyone is using SEC with Prelude today...

However, if you wanted to ask about the overall status of SEC, the 
product is very alive :) I don't know the precise number of users, but 
it is employed by many hundreds (if not thousands) of sites. Also, SEC 
packages exist for major Linux and BSD distributions -- here I'd like to 
use the opportunity and thank the authors and maintainers of these packages.

hth,
risto

P.S. Do you intend to revive the SEC+Prelude integration project? If so, 
may I ask about the current status of the whole Prelude system and its 
event correlation features?
