HIPS


CA Host-Based Intrusion Prevention System
REVIEWED BY BRAD CAUSEY

CA
Price: $40 per client with enterprise-level maintenance

CA Host-Based Intrusion Prevention System (CA HIPS) combines standalone firewall and intrusion detection and prevention technologies to provide security, access control, policy enforcement, intrusion prevention management and deployment from a central console.


Configuration/ManagementA  
Management server setup was simple and fast. The server will automatically enumerate all LDAP users and groups, ultimately providing the ability...



to control policies and rule sets by Active Directory group membership. The management server is configured by default to check for LDAP changes every 180 seconds.

The real beauty of CA HIPS is its Learning Mode, which allows you to monitor a group of systems to determine what constitutes acceptable behavior. This will help avoid the problem of a policy deployment that is either too restrictive, causing application/network outages, or too liberal, limiting the effectiveness of the product.

Client deployment is a cinch for desktops and servers. Log in to the intuitive, Web-based console and configure the client with the options you desire. Click "Build" and you are presented with an installation package.
