I wouldn't call their product Host IPS, if you are responding to
the request below.
It's definitely a network product; not sure IPS is right; it's more
about blocking traffic based upon identification of recon, sending
fake responses, etc. It's something you'd throw out on your
extended edge and help cut down on what gets past that....
e.g.-reduce firewall and IDS traffic/logs. Has pretty reports.
Not sure where I'd really put it. It's definitely a step above
TCP-reset technology but it sure won't scrub directed attack
traffic so IPS doesn't seem to fit.
Pentasafe/now/NetIQ VSAWS is Host IPS. Part tripwire part
HTTP traffic sanitization.
