Melih,
I guess you must be special to ISS, from my experience the support has been sub-par. Also do you like the idea that ISS IDS signatures are not known to the customer and only ISS ?

Hello Stephane,

We have been using ISS since last two years.(50 Server Sensor,15 Network Sensor,1 Proventia G 100 IPS),managed by SiteProtector.
We tested Netscreen,ISS,Radware,NAI Intrushield and Checkpoint during our evaluation period for intrusion detection/prevention systems.
Strong level of expertise and good technical support was one of the big reasons choosing ISS.

Dear All,

How do I choose an IDS/IPS provider if I need a strong level of expertise 24x7x365 and a worldwide representaion? I need it on Netscreen, PIX, CheckPoint and ISS Realsecure and Proventia.

Thank you,
