Intrusion detection and automated prevention
Versa's Intrusion Prevention System service, Versa IPS, monitors network traffic for suspicious activity and detects potential threats, like a traditional IDS (Intrusion Detection System), then actively prevents any identified malicious activities. It employs both signature-based detection, which matches traffic against known attack patterns, and anomaly-based detection, which identifies deviations from normal behavior. When potential threats are detected, the detection component generates alerts for network administrators, providing critical insights into network security.
Versa then takes the next step by automatically taking action to block or mitigate detected threats, such as dropping malicious packets, resetting connections, or blocking IP addresses to prevent attacks from succeeding. As a comprehensive monitoring and control system, Versa IPS enhances your overall security posture by identifying, alerting, and actively protecting against malicious activities within the network.
Comprehensive threat detection
Combine signature and anomaly-based detection
Versa Intrusion Detection and Prevention offers comprehensive threat detection by combining signature-based and anomaly-based techniques for identifying threats. This dual approach enhances accuracy in detecting known and unknown threats across your network. It ensures proactive protection against evolving security risks by analyzing both established threat patterns and anomalous behavior.
Key capabilities:
- Signature & anomaly detection: Identifies threats using known attack patterns and anomalous behavior.
- Real-time updates: Versa’s security research team continuously updates its signature database to protect against the latest vulnerabilities.
Alerting
Real-time alerts for swift threat detection and response
Versa Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) generates real-time alerts when potential threats are detected. Administrators can configure custom alerts based on threat severity, enabling focused responses. Instant notifications are sent via email, SMS, or system logs, with prioritization for severe threats and a detailed alert history for investigation and analysis.
Key capabilities:
- Custom alerts: Configure alerts based on threat severity for focused responses.
- Instant notifications: Sends real-time alerts through email, SMS, or system logs.
- Threat prioritization: Highlights the most severe threats for immediate attention.
-
Alert history:
Logs alerts for analysis and post-event investigation.
