Network IPS: TippingPoint 660N IPS Q4 2009

During Q4 2009, NSS Labs performed an independent group test of 15 network intrusion prevention systems (IPS) currently on the market. IPS vendors included in the test voluntarily submitted their products to NSS Labs free of charge and we did not receive any compensation in return for their participation. Each product was subjected to thorough testing at the NSS Labs facility in Austin, Texas, based on methodology v6.0.

While the Network IPS Group Test Report provides comparative information about those products, this Individual Test Report provides detailed information on a specific product not available elsewhere.

NSS Labs evaluated the products configured with the default, “out-of-the-box” settings, then again as optimally tuned by the vendor prior to testing to provide readers with a range of information on key IPS security effectiveness and performance dimensions.

As part of this test, TippingPoint submitted the 660N Network IPS.
