TippingPoint™ Intrusion Prevention Systems

Protection has never been more powerful. TippingPoint delivers the industry's leading Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), unrivaled in security, performance, high-availability, and ease-of-use. As the only Intrusion Prevention System to receive the NSS Gold Award and Common Criteria certification, among many other awards, TippingPoint is the defining benchmark for network-based intrusion prevention.

Intrusion Detection Systems, by definition, only detect and do not block unwanted traffic. The TippingPoint IPS operates in-line in the network, blocking malicious and unwanted traffic, while allowing good traffic to pass unimpeded. In fact, TippingPoint optimizes the performance of good traffic by continually cleansing the network and prioritizing applications that are mission critical. TippingPoint's high performance and extraordinary intrusion prevention accuracy have redefined network security, and fundamentally changed the way people protect their organization.

No longer is it necessary to clean up after cyber attacks have compromised your servers and workstations. No more ad-hoc and emergency patching. No more out of control, rogue applications like Peer-to-Peer and Instant Messaging running rampant throughout the network. Denial-of-Service attacks that choke Internet connections or crash mission critical applications are a thing of the past.

TippingPoint solutions continuously decrease IT security cost by eliminating ad-hoc patching and alert response, and continuously increase IT productivity and profitability through bandwidth savings and protection of critical applications.

TippingPoint's products are the best performing in the industry. Blocking cyber-attacks at multi-gigabit speeds with extremely low latency requires purpose-built hardware, and only TippingPoint has taken such a revolutionary architectural approach needed for true Intrusion Prevention. Traditional software and appliance solutions operate on general-purpose hardware and processors and are simply unable to perform without degrading network performance. Through rigorous third-party testing, TippingPoint has demonstrated Intrusion Prevention at multi-gigabit speeds, with extraordinary attack prevention accuracy. TippingPoint is proven in the industry as the most secure, highest performing platform for Intrusion Prevention.
