The new release delivers enhanced network security management by continuously monitoring for changes to networked assets with immediate adjustment in levels of security protection. The system automatically tunes itself to the right levels of alert management so that the security administrators receive genuine and real alerts about their exposure to threats. Having seen the new release in action, one of the key security partners recently branded CounterSnipe solutions as having an integrated "IDS/IPS analyst", impressed by the latest enhancements in IPS event management.

The new release eliminates the need for security administrators to frequently analyze CounterSnipe systems for changes on the network, provides for a safeguard against unwanted hosts being connected to the network and provides immediate reporting, with detailed port analysis, about the newly found hosts for urgent responses.

“IDS/IPS systems have been around for many years, but hardly utilized in anger due to the number of alerts generated by such systems and the management nightmares associated with them. Our goal is to continue building network intelligence into our already advanced solutions so that when you are woken up by that one alert, you know that is real", says Amar Rathore, CEO CounterSnipe. "Our customers want effective network security, not just expensive pretty looking  GUIs. In fact you should only ever have to logon to a security system, if there is a breach, and with accurate timely alerting this is what we seek to deliver" added Amar.

CounterSnipe latest release is immediately available both as site license and pre-configured appliances from CounterSnipe’s trained and accredited resellers internationally.  For further information or to test drive our systems please contact sales@countersnipe.com
