October 16, 2016 | NSFOCUS

Latest offering provides accurate, real-time threat protection to effectively block intrusions, prevent breaches and safeguard valuable assets

Dubai, UAE, GITEX October 17, 2016 – Today at GITEX Technology Week in Dubai, NSFOCUS, an intelligent hybrid security solutions provider, announced the release of its Next Generation Intrusion Prevention System (NGIPS). NSFOCUS’ NGIPS delivers an intelligent, multi-layered approach to identify and block known, zero-day and advanced persistent threats. NGIPS, in concert with the Cloud Security Platform, and world-class global threat intelligence, drives the Intelligent Hybrid Security approach to provide real-time threat detection and mitigation.

“Forward-thinking enterprises realize the need to incorporate threat intelligence capabilities directly into their network infrastructure,” said Allan Thompson, COO of NSFOCUS. “We enable these enterprises to protect themselves by combining real-time, accurate and actionable intelligence with our NGIPS. NSFOCUS NGIPS empowers enterprises to detect and mitigate dangerous threats quickly – ensuring organizations can prevent breaches and safeguard their assets.”

Key features and benefits include:

  • Integrated Threat Intelligence: The NGIPS combines intrusion prevention technology with real-time threat data from global threat intelligence to proactively detect known and unknown threats and alert on malicious activities.
  • Scalable Protection for Complex Network Environments: The NGIPS provides up to 20Gbps of application-layer data processing capacity and has flexible IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack adaptive capability.
  • Simplified Threat Management: The NGIPS can be deployed in a high-availability configuration, providing advanced network management features, including threat visualizations.
  • Comprehensive Threat Protection: The NGIPS integrates out-of-the-box with the NSFOCUS Threat Analysis (TA) sandboxing appliance. NSFOCUS TA utilizes a multi-stage detection engine to filter and analyze all incoming malicious traffic. The combination of NGIPS and TA provides complete advanced threat protection.

“NFOCUS’ NGIPS is truly unique from other security solutions,” said Stephen Gates, Chief Research Intelligence Analyst, NSFOCUS. “Legacy IPS products simply analyze data packets, unaware of any threat context.  NGIPS takes a more holistic approach to threat prevention by including context aware threat intelligence from multiple sources – including IP reputation, user identity and geographic locations – ensuring the highest level of network protection.”
