Trend Micro Excels in Latest Third-Party Testing of Its Network Defense Solution
NSS Labs Issues “Recommended” Status for TippingPoint TX Series in Data Center IPS Group Test
Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, announced it earned the prestigious “Recommended” rating
from NSS Labs in the Data Center IPS category. This accomplishment is the latest in a series of top ratings from NSS Labs, spanning
the key disciplines of Data Center IPS, Next Generation IPS and Breach Detection Systems.
The latest achievement of Trend Micro’s TippingPoint TX Series demonstrates its ability to provide effective, high-speed inline
network inspection without sacrificing performance.
“The challenges of running a modern data center demand a powerful IPS solution capable of blocking threats at high speeds
without sacrificing performance,” said Don Closser, general manager of TippingPoint for Trend Micro. “We believe this recognition
reinforces our ability to go beyond next-generation IPS to achieve accelerated, automated time-to-protection and deliver high
performance for the most demanding network environments. Leading companies out on our TX Series is a key piece of their
multi-layered, cross-generational approach to cybersecurity.”
NSS Labs rated throughput at 82,076 Mbps for IPv4 traffic, which is higher than the TX Series claimed performance of 80 Gbps
(80,000 Mbps), and latency was tested at 8 microseconds or lower. Total cost of ownership for the TX Series stands at under $7 per
protected Mbps.
The TippingPoint TX Series delivers unprecedented security and performance for high-capacity, high-demand enterprise networks.
It scales operations requirements to protect data, critical infrastructure, and vulnerable applications in real-time without
adversely affecting network speed. Additionally, the solution enables enterprises to take a proactive approach to security by
providing comprehensive contextual awareness and deeper analysis of network traffic. This awareness, combined with threat
intelligence from the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network and the Zero Day Initiative, provides the visibility and agility
necessary to keep pace with today’s dynamic, evolving enterprise networks.
