TippingPoint is the industry’s leading Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), unrivaled in security, performance, high availability and
ease-of-use. The TippingPoint IPS is an in-line device that is inserted seamlessly and transparently into the network. Its switch-
like performance characteristics allow it to be placed in-line at the perimeter, on internal network segments, at the core, and
at remote site locations. These powerful enforcement points can be centrally controlled to institute and enforce business-wide
security policies, allowing the TippingPoint IPS to see all network traffic and protect against external as well as internal attacks.
