Sourcefire 3D System
Sourcefire is a world leader in intelligent cybersecurity solutions. Sourcefire’s flagship family of intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS) lies at the heart of our security solutions portfolio. We offer a range of IPS solutions as well as several complementary products to protect your network.
Next-Generation IPS (NGIPS) and IPS
For large networks with dedicated security teams, Sourcefire Next-Generation IPS (NGIPS) includes network, application, behavior, and identity awareness for improved visibility and automation. For security teams that need robust protection features without awareness, we offer Sourcefire IPS.
Sourcefire IPSx™
For smaller networks managed by network administrators and IT generalists, IPSx secures networks and meets compliance mandates with minimal administrative attention.
All Sourcefire 3D Sensors for NGIPS, IPS, and IPSx operate in either inline intrusion prevention (IPS) or passive intrusion detection (IDS) modes and come with fail-open capabilities standard to safeguard constant network availability.
Complementary Sourcefire Products
Centralized Management
The Sourcefire Defense Center® centrally manages Sourcefire IPS sensors and enables you to categorize events, generate recurring reports, schedule automated Snort rule updates, configure policies, and display customizable dashboards to quickly communicate sensor feedback.
Virtualization
The Sourcefire Virtual IPS™ and Sourcefire Virtual Defense Center™ are available for VMware and XEN platforms. These virtual appliances enable you to inspect traffic between virtual machines (VMs) and simplify your deployment and management of sensors at remote sites where resources may be limited. Plus, you can mix and match physical and virtual Defense Centers and sensors to fit your needs.
SSL Inspection
Sourcefire SSL Appliances decrypt SSL traffic at 1Gbps line rate to enable existing security appliances to effectively inspect SSL traffic and then place the SSL-encrypted traffic back on the network for its final destination. SSL Appliance operates transparently on the network and supports both passive and inline network configurations.
Anti-malware external link
Most anti-malware products slow down an endpoint and require large downloads of the latest detection. Immunet™ provides accurate, lightweight end-point protection by moving detection and analysis to the cloud for true, real-time protection. Try Immunet today by itself or run it alongside your existing antivirus or anti-malware solution.
