NGIPS features and benefits

Real-time contextual awareness

If you can’t see it, you can’t protect it. Gain deep insight into your network devices, applications, users, operating systems, files, and more. Use this information to better understand network behavior, identify out-of-compliance situations, and evaluate intrusion events.
