Protects from attacks in real-time and provides accurate threat intelligence updates
I rate the ease of setup a seven or eight out of ten. The platform functions very well. We need technical support to make improvements to the platform. The deployment takes eight months. We need two or three system engineers and one electronic engineer specialized in Trellix platforms to deploy the tool. We need only one system engineer to maintain the product.
Art Astafiev - PeerSpot reviewer
Stable, accurate, and helps prevent attacks
I'm using the latest version of Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System. My company keeps upgrading the version. Deploying and maintaining Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System only requires one person. A thousand people use the solution within my company. There's no plan to increase its usage. My advice to anyone looking to use Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is to have a consultant ready for the complexity of deployment. My rating for the solution is nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"There's a good dashboard you can drill down into. It helps you easily locate intrusions and the source of attacks."
"The ability to centrally manage all the IPS sensors, track the different security events generated by it, and customize the different policies, depending on their location."
"McAfee NSP is much more stable than Cisco."
"The feature I found most valuable is the network threat analyzer in the security platform. It also integrates with GTI, or Global Threat Intelligence. Otherwise, I just use the basic features."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is a good product for dealing with DDoS attacks and for the inspection of network traffic."
"The solution can scale."
"It has a lot of functions, such as firewall. We are administrators, and we create some rules to protect our network. We also monitor the traffic in and out and have disk encryption on-premises. When we detect malware, we scan for the virus on the PC. We can then delete or block the malware."
"The threat intelligence updates are very accurate."
"For intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sorts of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work."
"A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."
"It integrates easily."
"You don't need any hardware because the solution is on the cloud. I like that Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is easy to install and manage."
"The most valuable feature is the central command center, where we can control and manage the solution."
"The technical support on offer is very good."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve some aspects of detection."
"The management console needs to be less complex and easier to navigate."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"Integration with Global Thereat Intelligence could be better. Also, I think management solutions are end of life now at McAfee. Network threat analyzer may be used for endpoint quarantines. Integration between these sides, as well as endpoint APO, will help you quarantine the risky endpoints."
"The area of concern where the tool needs improvement is how the product prompts users at a network level that helps prevent any wireless network attacks through alerts and notifications."
"The pricing could be improved."
"There are limited resources for configuration guidance."
"The platform’s GUI could be the latest."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"The firewall rules are limited."
"I would like to see this solution more lightweight and easier to install."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"An area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the complexity of its interface."
"It integrates well but it takes time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product’s pricing an eight out of ten."
"The tool is competitively priced."
"The price is in a market-suitable price range. So it's not expensive, but it's also not cheap either. The price is a strong point."
"We pay for Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System yearly. The cost increases if you add more users."
"TippingPoint is not as expensive as Palo Alto but it's not as cheap as Fortigate."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"TTPS is reasonably priced."
"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is an expensive product."
"It's an expensive product."
"It is an expensive solution and I would rate it three out of ten."
