Hi Joel, Great work,Thank you.
========================================= >I wrote an Opus One white paper on how to select a Network-based IPS which is >now available: > >http://www.juniper.net/solutions/literature/white_papers/select_ips.pdf > >Juniper is hosting the white paper and did the layout & graphics, although >there >is no Juniper-specific content in the paper (and Juniper didn't have editorial >control). It discusses signature-based IPS, rate-based IPS, and NBAD-ish IPS >as >options. Because most of the products out there are signature-based (and >because of space constraints), I mostly concentrate on signature-based IPS. > >The goal of the white paper is to lay out a methodology for deciding what kind >of IPS (if any) is right for your network, and then giving a series of steps >to >go through to decide what type of IPS is the right one for your network. > >Here's the first paragraph: > >Executive Summary: Network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) can >be extremely effective pieces of your overall network security strategy. >However, the IPS marketplace is filled with products that all do very different >things and are suitable for very different environments.
