I have talked to clients and they did not like the RadWare box. They say the management interface is unusable and the box isn't stable. I have played with the ISS and Cisco products and have been happy... Again-- I haven't spent much time with either of the products but have "heard" from several large state clients about the Radware box so don't take this post for much more than mere conversation. I met the head engineers from RadWare at a conference and they seemed nice... I think all their stuff is from Israel??
Information Security Mag has a IPS Comparison in their Nov 2005 issue Quick and Dirty Results = Cisco Systems - Intrusion Pevention Sensor 4255 Series = B ISS - Preventia Network Proteciton Appliance 6400 = B+ Radware - Defense Pro = C+ Sourcefire - 3D System Intrusion Sensor 3000 = B+ Top Layer Networks - Attack Mitigator IPS 5500 = A- Of course, this is just the quick and dirty, there are pro and cons for all. Kinda have to read the article to get all the reasons. -Todd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
