Intrusion Prevention Service (IPS) is a fully integrated security subscription. It works in tandem with the application layer content inspection of the WatchGuard device to provide real-time protection against network threats, including spyware, SQL injections, cross-site scripting, and buffer overflows. IPS scans traffic on all major protocols, using continually updated signatures to detect and block all types of threats. And because IPS is integrated with the security appliance, you have an easy-to-manage, cost-effective solution without additional hardware to purchase and maintain.
Features:
Have the flexibility to define the action to be taken when malware is identified - enabling the network to allow, block, or lock questionable traffic based on type, user/group, protocol, and severity.
Signatures cover a broad range of threats, including SQL injections, cross-site scripting (XSS), buffer overflows, denial of service, and remote file inclusions. Find detailed information about the vulnerabilities and threats covered by the IPS signatures on the WatchGuard Security Portal.
Signatures are updated without interruption as threats emerge, so you never have to leave your network exposed.
Assign specific actions to take depending on the level of the threat - each signature has a severity assigned.
IP addresses identified as the source of an attack are automatically blocked to prevent further malicious traffic from entering your network.
Manage all security functionality on your WatchGuard XTM appliance, including IPS, from a single intuitive console for maximum efficiency and ease of use.
Provide network-wide protection for all users configured behind your WatchGuard XTM firewall with a single IPS subscription.
Instantly Detect and Prevent Vulnerability Exploits
Exploits happen in near real time. That is why WatchGuard’s IPS has been designed to instantly and proactively identify and defend against suspicious network traffic using high-performance, deep-packet inspection across all ports and protocols. IPS provides around-the-clock defense against malicious activity that is designed to compromise and damage your organization. If an IP address is identified as the source of an attack, it can be automatically blocked to prevent further threats from attempting to enter your network.
Stay Ahead of the Evolving Threat Landscape
To make sure you are staying ahead of the evolving threat landscape, IPS constantly looks for new signatures every hour and applies automatic updates to the signature database, protecting your network from the latest threats while avoiding labor-intensive upkeep. Each signature update is also made without interruption to the security service – so you never leave your network exposed..
Full-Featured Threat Prevention
Customisable settings enable you to quickly select full scan or quick scan options based on performance and threat detection requirements. You can also choose to allow (log only), block, or drop questionable traffic based on type, user, group, protocol, and severity, as well as set alarms for when IPS detects threats..
Intuitive Management Console
Manage IPS alongside your other WatchGuard Security Services using an easy-to-use management console that gives you complete control and visibility into suspicious network traffic before it impacts your business.
How It Works
IPS examines traffic at the lowest level to identify known threats by matching traffic patterns to a comprehensive and continuously updated signature database. If a threat is identified, the Firebox takes action based on set policies to either block or notify the administrator.
