The award-winning Strata Guard® high-speed intrusion detection/prevention system (IDS/IPS) gives you real-time, zero-day protection from network attacks and malicious traffic, preventing:

• Malware, spyware, port scans, viruses, and DoS and DDoS from compromising hosts
• Device and network outages
• Data leakage
• High-risk protocols, such as BitTorrent™, Kazaa™, and TelNet, from running on your network
• Unauthorized access to sensitive data

Strata Guard takes the powerful, open-source Snort®* IDS engine and makes it practical for protecting corporate-scale networks. Strata Guard delivers:

• True intrusion prevention, terminating attacks before they get on the network
• High-speed throughput—up to 4 Gigs
• Multi-segment monitoring from a single box
• An award-winning, easy-to-use interface
• GUI-driven installation that take less than 30 minutes
• Multi-sensor (multi-node) management
• Automated attack rule updates
• Configurable attack responses
• Attack views prioritized by severity

Strata Guard protects your enterprise from the network perimeter to the core; including remote and internal segments. It monitors network traffic—in-line or out of band—anywhere the potential for attack exists; at the perimeter, internally, in the DMZ, and between strategic connections to un-trusted networks.

Strata Guard is deployable in both in-line and out of band configurations:

In-line deployment:

• True IPS functionality
• React instantaneously to attacks; drop offending packets (Pre-emptive policies™)
• Highest level of protection—attacks can't penetrate the network
• Allows you to move from IDS to IPS functionality at your own comfort level
• Available with fail-open bypass switch

Out-of-band deployment:

• Triggers alerts and notifications of suspicious activity
• Provides history of attack events
• Forensic tracking
