Proventia GX Series Security Appliances
IBM Internet Security Systems, Inc. - FIPS 140 #1941
The IBM Proventia Network Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) stops Internet threats before they impact your business and delivers protection to all three layers of the network: core, perimeter and remote segments. Preemptive protection, or protection that works ahead of the threat, is available from IBM Internet Security Systems through its proprietary combination of line-speed performance, security intelligence and a modular protection engine that enables security convergence.
