Intrusion Prevention
System (IPS) & Service

An intrusion prevention system (IPS) is a form of network security that works to detect and prevent identified threats. Intrusion prevention systems continuously monitor the network, looking for possible malicious incidents and capturing information about them.

The IPS reports these events to system administrators and takes preventative action, such as closing access points and configuring firewalls to prevent future attacks.

Our Intrusion Prevention Service examines and inspects network traffic flows to identify potential threats and stop exploit attempts in real time.

We ensure customers are safe from known and unknown malware and exploit code threats. We control potential threats in a safe environment (sandboxing). To do this, we extract files from the data stream if the threat policy allows it, and we send them to a caged operating system image platform.

This function supports all the most extensively used operating systems – where we replicate how files would have been used on the endpoint. We monitor everything a potential threat does, for example whether it makes dependency calls to external files or Internet resources, or if it tries to retrieve other malware or exploit code.
