Fortinet delivers IPS Performance
Fortinet has delivered the highest level of combined intrusion prevention system (IPS) performance and catch rate of the industry. Those results were achieved with the FortiGate-3950B, Fortinet's next-generation firewall appliance for large enterprise and data center environments, and are based on the tests performed using Breaking Point security testing products and NSS Labs test criteria methodology.
Following the NSS Labs IPS testing methodology, two L4 and L7 tests were conducted on the Fortigate-3950B appliance, one with IPS optimization enabled and the other without. The traffic set up was unidirectional and a large number of IP addresses were used on both the client and server sides to provide the most realistic testing conditions that reflect the largest number of devices present on a network.
"Beyond marketing claims, we believe that it is essential to validate the performance of our network security solutions using metric-based, rigorous real-world testing. By leveraging Breaking Point's security testing products, we prove once again Fortinet's strong foundation of high-performance security and real-time network protection to our customers," said Patrice Perche, Senior Vice-President, International Sales & Support, Fortinet.
