Juniper Networks

Juniper Networks Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) products provide comprehensive and easy-to-use in-line protection that stops network and application-level attacks before they inflict any damage to the network, minimizing the time and costs associated with maintaining a secure network. Using industry-recognized stateful detection and prevention techniques, Juniper Networks IDP provides zero-day protection against worms, Trojans, spyware, keyloggers and other malware from penetrating the network or spreading from already infected users.

Juniper Networks IDP not only helps protect networks against attacks, it provides information on rogue servers, as well as types and versions of applications and operating systems that may have unknowingly been added to the network. Application signatures, available on the Juniper Networks IDP, goes a step further and enables accurate detection of specific applications such as peer-to-peer or instant messaging. Armed with the knowledge of specific applications running in the network, administrators can more easily enforce security policies and maintain compliance with corporate application use policy. Juniper Networks IDP also provides DiffServ markings to allow the routers to enforce bandwidth limitations on non-essential applications. Not only can administrators control the access of specific applications, but they can ensure that business-critical applications receive a predictable quality of service.
