Working in conjunction with perimeter security, SecureSphere 2.0 is an intrusion prevention tool for Internet and intranet applications. Using proprietary technology, called Correlated Attack Validation, the software maps normal application behavior and monitors and protects against anomalies, such as buffer overflows, SQL injection, and directory traversal. Benefits include the ability to apply appropriate intrusion signatures to a particular application based on their applicability and the companys risk tolerance. IT can be installed as a transparent bridge to the application as well as in the existing network sniffing mode.
