Description
The Network Intrusion Prevention System (NIPS) automatically blocks malicious attacks while preserving network bandwidth and availability. The appliances are purpose-built, Layer 2 network security appliances that you can deploy either at the gateway or the network to block intrusion attempts, denial of service (DoS) attacks, malicious code, backdoors, spyware, peer-to-peer applications, and a growing list of threats without requiring extensive network reconfiguration.
Other Algorithms
RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides 112 or 128 bits of encryption strength); NDRNG
Hardware Versions
GX4004, GX5008C, GX5008SFP, GX5208C, GX5208SFP, GX7412 and GX7800 with Tamper Evident Label Kit: 00VM255
