that matter. At this time, the two industries are so far apart in interop-
erability that only a demanding customer base will be able to influ-
ence change. However, the basic idea is that if a new vulnerability is
discovered on a target system, then the appropriate upstream IPS will
be notified to activate the signature that would protect the asset until
it is properly remediated.
ere are two major benefits to this type of integration. First, a
vulnerability is protected until full remediation can be completed,
which lowers the overall dynamic vulnerability level in the environ-
ment. Second, the IPS optimizes its performance since only the nec-
essary rules are activated above the standard policy implementation.
