Module description
The NS7500 is an Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and Intrusion Detection System (IDS) designed for network protection against zero-day, DoS/DDoS, encrypted and SYN Flood attacks, and real-time prevention of threats like spyware, malware, VoIP vulnerabilities, phishing, botnets, network worms, Trojans, and peer-to-peer applications. The Trellix Intrusion Prevention system Sensors (Trellix IPS sensor) connect with the Trellix Intrusion Prevention System Manager Appliances (Trellix IPS Manager-may be referred to as Manager in this document). The Trellix IPS Manager is used to manage and push configuration data and policies to the Sensors. Communication between Manager and Sensors uses secure channels that protect the traffic from disclosure and modification. Authorized administrators may access the Trellix IPS Manager via a GUI (over HTTPS) or a CLI (via SSH or a serial console connection). Sensors may be accessed via CLI (via SSH or a serial console connection) for initial setup. Once initial setup is complete, all management occurs via the Manager.
