I would also suggest that you look at the Intrushield solution by
McAfee.

We've been looking at Top Layer as and IPS and will be looking at
Securiant.

        Hello,
        We are currently looking at different alternatives to our Snort
implementation for and IDS.  We currently run Snort+ACID on a SPAN port.
It works well, but would like a more robust system that is capable of
anomaly detection, flow analysis, etc.  I am wondering what everyone
uses for IDS/IPS?  Do you use a combination of open source tools, a
commercial software solution, or a commercial hardware solution?  What
are the advantages of your implementation?  Disadvantages?

        Thanks!
