TippingPoint's UnityOne Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) was recognized as "Best of 2004" in the December issue of SC Magazine, and also achieved the "Best Buy" rating.
The award recognizes the top products reviewed in SC Magazine's test laboratories during 2004. TippingPoint's UnityOne received five out of five stars.
"We are extremely honored to receive this award," said TippingPoint CEO Kip McClanahan. "The real achievement here is that the award is based on a real-world, third party review of our product. Winning is most meaningful when it is based on live evaluations."
According to Peter Stephenson, SC Magazine reviewer, "Of all the products we tested, (UnityOne) was the fastest and easiest to install ... In performance tests, the device received top ratings in speed and latency. We found that the product's ease of use and installation complemented its performance achievements."
SC Magazine Reviews Editor Rene Millman said, "A Best Buy is our top award and will go to products we rate as outstanding across a range of criteria. The product must also raise the bar of the industry through groundbreaking features, excellent ease of use and fantastic value for money, as well as having good documentation and helpful support."
TippingPoint's UnityOne is the most decorated intrusion prevention system. It is the only intrusion prevention system awarded Gold from The NSS Group. In 2004, UnityOne also received Information Security magazine's Gold rating as "Product of the Year" in the Intrusion Prevention Systems category, eWEEK's Excellence Award for Enterprise Resource Protection, IDG's Network Protection Product of the Year presented by TechWorld, SANS' Trusted Tool designation, and eWEEK's Analyst's Choice Award. UnityOne was also the first IPS to achieve Common Criteria certification and Tolly "Up to Spec" certification.
