Abstract

IntruGuard Devices, Inc. commissioned The Tolly Group to evaluate the performance of its IG2000 Rate-Based Intrusion Prevention System (RBIPS), a stateful security appliance designed to monitor bidirectional traffic, intercept DoS/DDoS floods and other anomalies such as state-anomalies, header anomalies, network scans, dark-address scans, and port scans, etc.

The Tolly Group validated the performance of the IG2000, as well as the appliance’s effectiveness at detecting and mitigating a variety of high-rate attacks at Layers 2, 3 and 4. Additionally, Tolly Group engineers measured the latency of the appliance and effectiveness under attack.
