IPS Test Methodology Intro
We've been busy with a lot of exciting developments in BreakingPoint Labs, one of which you will hear about on Tuesday. I thought that I would whet your appetite a bit though and post up this intro video starring our own Dennis Cox and Rik Maerz. In this video, one of eight we will be posting along with materials, Dennis and Rik introduce the upcoming Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) test methodology being put together by BreakingPoint for testing a range of IPS devices.
I personally found the videos and ultimately the test methodology to be extremely helpful in understanding the full capabilities of our products. What resonated with me the most was how you can apply your tests to measure a variety of instances, vulnerabilities, application protocols and more. This remains true across different devices. As you will hear in the video Dennis and Rik generated the methodologies by testing a spectrum of devices (and they also do a clever job of censoring the actual names).
Go check out the intro here and stay tuned for episode 2, a discussion of past IPS tests.
