    Can anyone point me in the right direction for any software products or
    vendors that might do this sort of thing:

    We want an intelligent agent or a group of agents to search and archive
    various parts of the web / chat rooms / usenet groups based on specific
    content which could be threatening to an organization. To be more precise:
    A discussion initiates on a newsgroup about a possible vulnerability in
    our software product or website. The agent happens to monitor this
    newsgroup and detects the conversation as a potential threat and thus
    creates a report.

    I've seen this sort of thing being called "open source monitoring" and may
    even fall under "brand protection" however if anyone can provide
    additional information as to what products may help us accomplish this or
    if any security vendors exists which already do this I'd appreciate it!

    Regards,
    Chris
