Intrusion Prevention Systems

Overview The inadequacy inherent in current defenses has driven the development of a new breed of security products known as Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS). This is a term which has provoked some controversy in the industry since some firewall and IDS vendors think it has been "hijacked" and used as a marketing term rather than as a description for any kind of new technology. Whilst it is true that firewalls, routers, IDS devices and even AV gateways all have intrusion prevention technology included in some form; we believe that there are sufficient grounds to create a new market sector for true Intrusion Prevention Systems.
