Intrusion Detection System (IDS System)

Most providers offer a “one-size-fits-all” IDS/IPS system, but Sourcefire is different. No matter whether your organization is small or large, new to intrusion detection systems or more experienced, Sourcefire offers an intrusion detection and intrusion prevention system solution to meet your network security needs.

Next-Generation IPS (NGIPS) and IPS: For large networks with dedicated security teams, Sourcefire Next-Generation IPS (NGIPS) raises the bar for IPS technology by integrating real-time contextual awareness into its inspection. The system provides information about network and host configurations, applications and operating systems, user identity, and network behavior and traffic baselines. By having the 100% network visibility, NGIPS eliminates over 99% of actionable events, automates IPS tuning, and identifies users to significantly lower the total cost of ownership. For security teams that need robust protection features without awareness, we offer Sourcefire IPS.

Sourcefire IPSx™: For smaller networks managed by network administrators and IT generalists, IPSx secures networks and meets compliance mandates with minimal administrative attention.

All Sourcefire 3D Sensors for NGIPS, IPS, and IPSx operate in either inline intrusion prevention or passive intrusion detection modes and come with fail-open capabilities standard to safeguard constant network availability.
