Top Layer - Intrusion Prevention System Products

Defends against Devastating Security Threats including Hackers, Trojans, Web Server Attacks, Worms and DDoS Attacks

Attack Mitigator IPS 5500

According to Greg Young, research director with Gartner,

"Effective network intrusion prevention must be inline, perform at the rated throughput without packet loss, and have acceptable performance even when handling a variety of packet sizes. Performance with minimal latency, the backing of good research and updates, a clear configuration and management interface, and predictable behavior under load are some of the essential elements on an IPS."

Overview

Providing a strong defense against intruders and attackers that attempt to cripple your business operations is imperative for today's IT organizations. Between the increasing scale of attacks and the rapid emergence of new vulnerabilities, today's security infrastructure is unable to maintain needed levels of protection while also allowing legitimate business operations to continue. Top Layer's new Attack MitigatorT IPS 5500 is the most advanced Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) solution designed to protect organizations against external and internal threats that target their critical infrastructure.

The Attack Mitigator IPS 5500 is the world's only network Intrusion Prevention System to provide any enterprise with Non-Stop Protection against both network-level and application-level attacks. Non-Stop Protection means that 100% of legitimate transactions reach their destination with no discernable impact on network latency even when under load or attack - The Attack Mitigator IPS 5500 is the only network Intrusion Prevention System product with this capability.

Intrusion Protection

Top Layer's Attack Mitigator IPS is a family of high performance, ASIC-based intrusion prevention solutions with intelligent blocking and control against the most prevalent cyber attacks. Hybrid attacks such as HTTP worms, DoS / DDoS attacks, protocol and traffic anomalies, IP spoofing, SYN flood attacks, and more, are accurately detected, and stopped in real-time. The Attack Mitigator IPS allows the network security administrator full control in selecting how the device will respond to detected attacks. Precise but flexible actions against blocking malicious and suspicious traffic include monitoring, alerting, limiting and blocking.

Attack Mitigator IPS is scaleable from 100Mbps to multi-gigabit networks for maximum performance and flexible application. Top Layer's family of Attack Mitigator IPS 5500 products can be deployed at the perimeter, on internal network segments, remote site locations or at the core. Customers can easily manage these products centrally with Top Layer's SecureCommand+T threat management solution.

In addition to Non-Stop Protection, the Attack Mitigator IPS 5500's purpose-built hardware platform provides Total Network Integrity by integrating performance, management, and reliability with the most advanced protection mechanisms for:

  • Content-Based Attacks (including worms, Trojans, viruses and exploits of critical vulnerabilities)
  • Rate-Based Attacks (such as denial-of-service and DDoS attacks)
  • Complete Access Control (with advanced Stateful firewall features to protect against unauthorized user access and insider abuse)

Since its launch in late 2004, the Attack Mitigator IPS 5500 has become the first and only IPS product to receive the coveted Double NSS Award .

Bottom line: The Attack Mitigator IPS 5500's approach to network intrusion prevention offers an unrivaled return on investment, often within days, or even hours.
