I don't get, what do you mean by "Percentage", since we have uncounted
number of vendors/brands of IPS today.
If you look at the technology angle, the vendors who are offering both
Software and Appliance versions of the same IPS, falls into the first
category. To take a look back at the market, we find only very few
vendors, like ISS, Snort, Dragon, ...hmmm.. Can somebody help to
fill-up the list.
Whether it is IDS or IPS, it is important to look at the Detection
Technology. If it cannot detect, how can it alert or prevent?
In an IPS world, firewall plays behind the scenes; since the IDS is
configuring the built-in firewall feature to block.

Greetings.
What percentage of the IPS systems are out there, which does not use
co-processors/FPGA etc..
What percentage of the IPS systems depend on firewalls like iptables
and ip filter ?
I am just trying to get an idea of what is the state of art in the IPS
technology space.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks
