Stonesoft introduces IPS-1302 for demanding Web and encrypted traffic inspection
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Modular network interface technology now available for gigabit IPS appliances
Helsinki, Finland - January 20, 2012 - The network security company Stonesoft
today announced the availability of the Stonesoft(TM) IPS-1302 intrusion
prevention system appliance on high-utilized gigabit data center and modern
corporate network environments. Designed for demanding Web and encrypted traffic
inspection, the appliance provides efficient protection against Advanced Evasion
Techniques (AETs) without compromising traffic speed or availability.
High-performance modular network interface technology
The Stonesoft IPS-1302 modular appliance features interface card slots
supporting four bypass gigabit Ethernet interfaces or two 10-gigabit interfaces.
The number of available interface module options offers increased flexibility
compared to previous appliance models. Different interface modules provide fast
and flexible network deployment at data centers and corporate networks.
"The Stonesoft IPS-1302 appliance complements our IPS product offering, bringing
the cost efficient modular network technology available for gigabit performance
class. Until now, this option has been available with multi-gigabit IPS
appliances only. The Stonesoft IPS-1302 appliance has been designed to protect
against advanced threats and evasive attack methods on high-utilized data center
and modern corporate networks", said Tomi Kononow, IPS Product Manager at
Stonesoft.
Highest level of protection against Advanced Evasion Techniques
The Stonesoft IPS-1302 offers the highest level of security against Advanced
Evasion Techniques (AET) without compromising traffic speed or availability
across the network. Evasion techniques are a means to disguise and/or modify
cyber attacks to avoid detection and blocking by information security systems.
Evasions enable cyber criminals to deliver any malicious content, exploit or
attack to a vulnerable system without detection that would normally be detected
and stopped. Advanced Evasion Techniques are typically used as part of APTs
(Advanced Persistent Threats). While most security systems are rendered
ineffective against AETs, the Stonesoft(TM) IPS-1302 provides efficient
protection against them.
Comprehensive network security
Stonesoft(TM) IPS-1302 and all other Stonesoft appliances offer comprehensive
network security with easy configuration and unified management. This ensures an
optimized and scalable solution for any geographically dispersed enterprise
deployment.
