Intrusion detection that stops attacks early.

Systems that identify and block suspicious activity in real time, so an attack gets stopped before it does damage.

Overview

A firewall decides what's allowed in. Intrusion detection and prevention watches what happens after that, looking for the patterns of an attack in progress: unusual logins, scanning, known exploit traffic, or a device suddenly talking to somewhere it shouldn't.

Detection raises the alert. Prevention blocks the traffic automatically. Together they shorten the time between an attacker getting a foothold and that foothold getting shut down.
