Anything is better than the Cisco IPS in our testing. The Tipping point is quite good as is the Juniper IDP (75, 250, 800, 8200 etc) I've used the tipping point and it was quite good and the reporting functionality was superior. If you're interested in this space also check out Juniper, ISS, Source Fire, and don't shoot me but McAfee. In terms of actual threat detection the vendors all did fairly well with the exception of Cisco. The units we tested as well as other 3rd party tests you can find by googling show Cisco falls short by about 40% in terms of threats detected. Get your self some hands on demos of all these products if this is an area you're seriously interested in.

Subject: [c-nsp] Cisco IPS vs TippingPoint


Hi All,

I would like to know how the TippingPoint IPS platform compare with the
Cisco IPS in terms of functionality and effectiveness.

My experience is with the Cisco offering, but I have read some very good
reviews about TippingPoint IPS and wanted to read your experience with it.

Thanks. Felix
