"Intrusion prevention is a key layer in the network security architecture of today’s businesses," said Juliette Sultan, head of global marketing at Check Point. "However, customers struggle with IPS point products that don’t deliver clear, actionable intrusion information. The integration of our best-in-class IPS solution into Check Point’s security architecture brings greater visibility of threats to customers and enables administrators to focus and respond faster to critical events."

Check Point IPS-1 is the first intrusion prevention system (IPS) to utilize Situational Visibility, a real-time graphical interface that isolates and highlights critical attacks against essential business systems. Situational Visibility allows customers to graphically monitor these business systems and then drill down on key events to get attack details, including attack source and type, effects of the attack, recommended remediation methods and the actual packet capture of the attack. The exclusive information and forensic tools available in IPS-1 accelerate administrators’ ability to recognize, evaluate and act upon suspicious network events.

By leveraging Intel’s multi-core and parallel processing technologies, customers gain high performance levels in both the appliance and software-only versions of IPS-1. IPS-1 OpenSensor, the software-only version of Check Point IPS solution, leverages standard-based, economical CPU architectures and provides customers with enterprise security as well as the scalability to meet future bandwidth and threat protection requirements.

IPS-1 is now integrated with Check Point’s security architecture, giving customers common Check Point usability components and characteristics. The integration improves installation, simplifies the user interface and allows shared administrators.

Additional IPS-1 R65.1 features include:

Hybrid Detection Engine™ protects networks and applications from attacks by leveraging multiple detection and analysis techniques
Attack Confidence Indexing™ offers full-prevention deployment through directing and calibrating security enforcement
Integration with SecurePlatform® simplifies installation and administration

Concluded Sultan, "By integrating IPS-1 with Check Point’s security architecture, Check Point delivers accurate intrusion prevention to customers with rapid response mitigation and at high performance levels."
