Intrusion Prevention (IPS)

NSS Labs Network Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) tests are the industry Gold standard. Looking for the best IPS? Our comprehensive and rigorous test methodology covers security effectiveness, performance, manageability and stability, and ensures that certified products yield real‐world results that IT buyers can rely upon.

NSS pioneered IDS/IPS testing with the publication of the first IDS test criteria in 1999. The industry’s first IPS test criteria followed in 2002. Today, NSS Labs’ Network IPS certifications are the most distinguished awards possible in the category, and the most sought after by vendors.

New!: IPS Comparative and Individual Test Reports. NSS Labs evaluates 15 Network IPS products to determine their effectiveness, performance, ease-of-management, and total cost of ownership. Read more

Security Update Monitor: NSS Labs also performs monthly IPS testing to make sure vendors are keeping up with ongoing vulnerability disclosures (e.g. Microsoft and Adobe Patch Tuesdays, etc.), because test results can quickly become stale as threats evolve. Security Update Monitor is only available from NSS Labs.
