Jacob:
I implemented a TippingPoint for my prior employer (Govt. service
provider). It performed extremely well blocking 400,000+ attacks per day
(mostly Nimda, etc.). It was transparent to our clients (except where they
saw the drop off of worm attacks), and allowed us to get extremely
granular in what we wanted to "recognize" and alert/ block on using their
"custom shield writer".
We also used it to enforce policy (such as disallowing Kazaa regardless of
port number used, etc.) It was easy to
configure and manage. I personally would recommend it to anyone looking
for an IPS product.
Just my $0.02
