Accurate inline prevention technologies provide unparalleled confidence to take preventive action on a broader
range of threats without the risk of dropping legitimate traffic. These unique technologies offer intelligent,
automated, contextual analysis of data and help ensure that businesses are getting the most out of their intrusion
prevention solutions. Furthermore, the IPS SSP, AIP SSM, and AIP SSC use multivector threat identification to
protect the network from policy violations, vulnerability exploitations, and anomalous activity through detailed
inspection of traffic in Layers 2 through 7.
Table 2 details the AIP SSM and AIP SSC models that are available, and their respective performance and
physical characteristics.
