Network Security White Papers

Securing Critical Data and IT Infrastructure in Healthcare Environments

Overview The seemingly paradoxical demand in healthcare organizations today is increased availability and security. Without a defined security architecture in place this would truly be impossible. TippingPoint provides the solution to both availability and security with the TippingPoint IPS. TippingPoint is the industry's leading Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), unrivaled in security, performance, high availability, and ease-of-use. Unlike passive-mode Intrusion Detection Systems, the TippingPoint IPS operates in-line in the network, blocking malicious and unwanted traffic, while allowing good traffic to pass unimpeded.
