It uses advanced technologies and regularly updated signature databases.

Benefits of Intrusion Prevention:

  • Proactive protection: IPS provides proactive protection against known and unknown threats. It detects suspicious activity and exploit attempts on the network before they can cause damage.
  • Comprehensive detection: By combining signature-based detection methods, anomaly-based detection methods, and behavioral analysis, the IPS can cover a wide range of attack vectors. Both known and zero-day threats are identified.
  • Automated response: When a threat is detected, the IPS automatically initiates actions to block the attack and minimize its impact. These include blocking traffic, disconnecting connections or applying quarantine rules.
  • Custom policies: To customize detection and response to specific threats and attack vectors relevant to their network and organization, IT administrators can create custom IPS policies.
  • Integrated reporting: Intrusion Prevention provides comprehensive reporting capabilities. This allows IT administrators to evaluate the effectiveness of their security measures and continuously improve their security strategy.

With intrusion prevention in your Sophos Firewall Network Protection, you benefit from proactive and comprehensive protection against cyber threats. This improves the security of your network and minimizes the risk of data loss and business disruption.
