Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) are devices used to protect
the internal
network from all forms of attacks. They watch all network data
to detect and block exploits, attacks, reconnaissance attempts and
other unwanted traffic. These devices dig deep into the network
packets to ensure no unwanted traffic is making its way from the
Internet to your server.
IPS devices also help protect servers from the time delay in vulnerability
discovery and the release of OS and application patches. In most
cases when a vulnerability or exploit is released, it takes our
IPS vendor approximately 3 hours to write and release a signature
to stop these attacks. Your server will be protected from newly
discovered vulnerabilities and exploits even before the needed patch
is applied to your server.
In Christian
hosting and Christian
website, one must be prepared for attacks from outside systems
and sources as they happen all the time. As you can see, we are
prepared in the right manner to handle this.
