Re: IPS Device

We have an Enterasys Dragon Appliance.  It does a great job and is
highly expandable.  We also have deployed their SIEM as well which
correlates Dragon events into actionable trouble tickets which make it
easier to tune the IPS.

We have a 2400E and are very happy with it.  We compared (a few years
ago) Nitro and ISS (now IBM) against it and felt no change was
warranted.

 I was wondering if other Universities have deployed an IPS solution as
a defense in depth strategy. We are currently looking at Tipping Point.
Any comments on the solution are welcome.

 

Thanks
