IDS: Re: TippingPoint vs. Intrushield

[Darren Bounds <dbounds () intrusense com>]

Jacob,

While IntruShield was not included, 2 months ago I concluded a 60 day,  
independent evaluation of the IPS offerings from ISS, Radware, TopLayer  
and TippingPoint. My methodology was based primarily on that of NSS.
In the end, TippingPoint was selected based on performance, easy of  
use, ease of deployment and by providing under wavering level of  
reliability and accuracy.
