Understanding threat vectors and vulnerabilities inside your network is an essential first step to keeping assets protected and available.

IPS is a powerful weapon, but you can’t use it effectively if you don’t know what to defend:

WHERE ARE YOU VULNERABLE?

Once you understand your network environment, it’s time to switch on your IPS - but only in detect mode.

IPS is never a done deal. To stay protected, you need the right people, processes and skills to support continuous monitoring, regular updates and on-going reviews.

Your IPS can and should be demanding when it’s working properly:
