Features & Benefits

An Integrated Security Device, with IPS, Firewall, VPN, Content Filtering, and more
The TippingPoint™ X505 utilizes the award-winning capabilities of the TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System to continually cleanse the network of malicious traffic —including worms, viruses, Trojans, phishing attempts, spyware, VoIP threats and others.

In addition to IPS functionality, the TippingPoint X505 includes IPSec VPN, a stateful packet inspection firewall, Web content filtering, and policy-based traffic shaping, which provides fine grain bandwidth usage and control for both inbound and outbound traffic streams.

The X505 prioritizes real-time business-critical applications, including video conferencing, IP telephony and interactive distance-learning. Its innovative tunneling approach secures current and next-generation multicast conferencing applications as well as other business critical applications. The TippingPoint X505 can prioritize both inbound and outbound application traffic as well as inside and outside IPSec VPN tunnels.

To help ensure constant protection, TippingPoint's Digital Vaccine security team continually develops new attack filters to preemptively protect against the exploit of new and zero-day vulnerabilities.
