Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System Valuable Features
A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively.

What I like about Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is that it works okay. I don't have time to mess with the tool most of the time because I have way too many tasks to do, but Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System tells you when there's a problem, then it blocks the problem, so that's what I like most about it.

Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an amazing product for me because it has three modes of use. The mode we were recommended meets all of our needs.
The solution is a pioneer in the IPS industry. Also, having a legal and transparent bounty program gives Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a very strong competitive advantage.

It ships with a default profile that enables approximately 2300 filters for items that should never legitimately exist on a network, including certain attacks such as buffer overflows as well as malicious downloads. In addition to these default filters, more than 5400 additional filters, broadly considered policy choices, are available for use based on the requirements of the protected environment and it now offers a Reputation Digital Vaccine Service (Rep DV).
HP released a Vaccine toolkit that uses a wizard to let TippingPoint customers generate their own filters, in effect deploying "virtual patches" to protect themselves from vulnerability exploitation. Filters created by using the Digital Vaccine Toolkit can be applied directly to a single IPS or the SMS console can be used to quickly update all systems. Impressive.

In TippingPoint, the IPS signatures and the IPS database are much better than what is commonly available. TippingPoint is more intelligent. It can work out bypass models if the device goes bad suddenly for any reason. It actually goes into a bridge mode where it parses from the data and finds where the problem is with the software security. We configure it like this so that if that happens, we immediately switch on the IPS in the firewall because technically the scenario is like that in the gateway. We first put on the firewall and the connection goes from there before going to the internal network or LC. We put the IPS in between the perimeter firewall, in an internal port.
One of the major reasons for choosing TippingPoint is that it acquires the intelligence of the IPS signatures. It is the first IPS solution database we tried. We actually detect a lot of intrusions not detectable by other solutions. This is an important point.
Another feature is that it can work in a base mode if the device goes down. Then, even if we do not do a modification into the network to get it working, you just switch on the IPS in the firewall and the device will pass on all those packets to the underlying devices. This way the operation doesn't stop and in the meantime, you can fix the problem.
