Top Layer and netForensics Extend Network Visibility and Protection by Integrating Comprehensive Intrusion Prevention with Robust Security Information Management

Hudson, MA, September 01, 2009 -

IPS 5500 and SIM One combine to deliver high-performance security protection utilizing deep analytics, enhanced data enrichment and bi-directional network intelligence

Top Layer Security, a leading global provider of Network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), and netForensics, Inc., a leader in the Security Information Management market, announced today a deeper integration of Top Layer's IPS 5500 E-Series intrusion prevention solution with netForensics' flagship nFX Security Information Management solution, nFX SIM One.  In addition to supporting the latest release of Top Layer's IPS 5500, netForensics now integrates all of Top Layer's logs and signatures to enable deeper analysis and bi-directional network intelligence for more accurate, proactive security protection.

 

"Companies today are faced with countless security threats and clever social engineering tactics that even the most educated computer user can fall for," said Mike Paquette, chief strategy officer, Top Layer Security.  "Our customers seek proactive security protection that can help overcome the craftiness of today's cyber threats.  Combining Top Layer's high-performance IPS with the intelligence of nFX SIM One provides customers with confidence that their network defenses are up-to-task in an ever-changing security environment."

 

Top Layer's IPS 5500 offers Three Dimensional Protection against malicious content, undesired access and rate-based attacks, protecting enterprises and service providers from sophisticated, hybrid attacks in real-time while enabling the highest throughput of legitimate traffic.  By reporting network traffic activities, malicious and benign, the IPS 5500 fuels nFX SIM One with security event information for high-accuracy risk scoring that can then be applied to the network protection policies in a holistic manner to provide the best intelligence to defend against today's cyber threats.

 

"We are pleased to build upon our long-standing partnership with Top Layer Security," said Tracy Hulver, vice president of products and marketing, netForensics. "Both companies' continued commitment to deliver best-in-breed security to our customers is demonstrated through the latest SIM One integration with Top Layer's IPS 5500 - a testament to how technology partners can effectively combine best practices and powerful technologies to solve customers' real-world security challenges."
