Tags:
network security

Overview The IBM Proventia Network Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) stops Internet threats before they impact the business and delivers protection to all three layers of the network: core, perimeter and remote segments. Preemptive protection - protection that works ahead of the threat - is available from IBM Internet Security Systems (ISS) through its proprietary combination of line-speed performance, security intelligence and a multifaceted protection engine. Proventia Network IPS delivers on all six counts, with performance, preemptive protection, high availability, simple deployment and management, and excellent customer support.
