Stonesoft receives Network Intrusion Prevention System Certification from ICSA Labs

February 2008 by Emmanuelle Lamandé

Stonesoft announces its StoneGate IPS-2000 intrusion prevention system has received certification from ICSA Labs, an independent division of Verizon Business.

The StoneGate IPS-2000 attained ICSA Labs’ Network IPS Certification after stringent and simultaneous security, management and performance testing. Based on research, industry cooperation and end-user feedback, ICSA Labs’ testing methodology includes attacks targeting vulnerabilities that are pertinent to enterprise end users, attacks disguised by evasion techniques, denial-of-service attacks, network performance and latency measurements as well as administrative function tests. These aspects are tested simultaneously to provide reliable results depicting how network IPS devices may operate in an actual enterprise environment.

The StoneGate IPS-2000 uses multiple, accurate network traffic analysis techniques to protect vulnerable applications and operating systems on intranets and in demilitarized zones (DMZs) from network threats. StoneGate IPS also includes protection from abuse, including denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and unwanted application usage, such as peer-to-peer communication and streaming media protocols.

StoneGate IPS provides flexible deployment options in both inline IPS and IDS modes and is ideally suited for customers with consolidated and/or distributed security environments. With the Transparent Access Control (TAC) module, StoneGate IPS allows easy and cost-effective network segmentation and access control for internal networks.

StoneGate IPS is an essential part of the StoneGate product family comprised of the StoneGate Management Center (SMC), Firewall/VPN and SSL VPN. The StoneGate product family was designed to provide the full benefits of a unified management system including shared logging, reporting and auditing.

ICSA Labs is an independent division of Verizon Business, a unit of Verizon Communications. ICSA Labs offers vendor-neutral testing and certification of security products for hundreds of the world’s top security vendors. Businesses rely on ICSA Labs to authoritatively set and apply objective testing and certification criteria for measuring product compliance and reliability.
