WHITE PAPER - There is some confusion in the marketplace about intrusion-security systems. Intrusion Detection Systems and Intrusion Prevention Systems have similar names and tend to get lumped together into a single security category: Intrusion Detection and Prevention. But the capabilities and underlying design of these systems couldn't be more different.

WHITE PAPER - The last thing network security managers need is more complicated management systems to learn. There are four management keys to an IPS solution: Speed of initial set-up; Ease of ongoing management; Flexible management interfaces; and IPS management scalability. This paper will take a good hard look at each of these manageability components.
