The NetScreen
Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP™) system was developed to
help you effectively protect your critical network assets by
accurately detecting attacks, stopping the attack impact and
delivering simplified security management. The innovative technology
of NetScreen-IDP provides the next layer of security, complementing
firewalls and VPNs to protect against attacks in network traffic.
The following information describes the benefits of NetScreen-IDP:
- Detect more attacks with
Multi-Method Detection
- Reduce false positives with
Stateful Signatures
- Drop malicious packet during the
detection process using patent-pending technolog
- Eliminate impact of attacks
- Control over functionality with
centralized rule-based approach
- Reduce management overhead with
integrated incident management
Most people think network intrusions just happen to other people. The
reality is
network attacks affect everyone. It
is inevitable that your network will be attacked, and you can be
sure the attackers will try all sorts of different tricks to
compromise your systems. Are you prepared?
A firewall is a start. It is
an access control device that determines which traffic is allowed in
and out of your network, based on predefined rules. The firewall
uses these rules to determine what is "allowed," based on the
source, destination and service of the traffic. Some firewalls, such
as NetScreen's firewall solutions, have added some attack detection
and prevention capabilities, protecting against Denial of Service
attacks and some network layer exploits. However, firewalls are
simply not designed to do in depth, packet analysis to look for all
types of network and application layer attacks.
Plus, there are some attacks
that the firewalls will never see because they circumvent security
measures. For instance, a remote user may bring their laptop from
home into the office and introduce a Trojan that is undetectable at
the point of entry. Whether it is an internal or external attack,
you can't afford to remain unaware and vulnerable.You need attack
detection and prevention. In order to keep your information assets
safe, your firewall must be complemented with the NetScreen-IDP
system.
NetScreen-IDP is the only device that provides complete and accurate
attack coverage prevents
an attack from ever impacting your network. NetScreen invented the
Multi-Method Detection (MMD™) mechanism to combine multiple
detection mechanisms in a single product for comprehensive coverage.
In addition, NetScreen-IDP uses these detection mechanisms in an
intelligent manner, automatically using the most efficient method to
detect each type of attack and looking in only the relevant portions
of traffic where an attack can do damage to reduce the chance of any
false alarms. As soon as the attack is detected, NetScreen-IDP can
drop it (if you have told it to do so in the security policy) to
eliminate its impact on the network.
-
NetScreen-IDP is easy to deploy, configure and manage. It provides
an intuitive graphical user interface, with integrated policy
editor, log viewer and traffic session viewer. This integrated
approach allows the administrator to control and manage multiple
sensors across the enterprise in an efficient and cost-effective
manner. And since all management activities can be accessed
remotely, using a single security policy, administrators can
quickly change security policies and investigate security
incidents.
-
The purpose built NetScreen-IDP offers the industry's first
3-tiered architecture, where sensor behavior is controlled by a
remote graphical user interface, all system configuration and data
is stored in a central management server, and attack detection and
prevention is controlled by distributed enforcement points.
-
NetScreen-IDP provides the highest level of traffic processing and
alarm presentment available, delivering fast and efficient alarm
collection, presentation and forwarding.
