[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1092879, member: 99014"] The benefit of IPS is that one signature, once created, will cover hundreds, even thousands of different sites or pieces of malware. But the benefit of Web Shield is that, all C&Cs can be automatically extracted through telemetry, static analysis and automated malware analysis. Additional correlational logics can be performed to link one C&C server to many more. So overall, Web Shield has quicker reaction times than Symantec IPS. Edit: yes, IPS signatures are very accurate but they are signatures. They take time for researchers to create manually and you can’t have too many, as the whole traffic is scanned bit by bit against them. Web Shield allows for high volume of malicious sites and IP addresses to be blacklisted in less than a second. Web Shield all in all seems like the right way to go. [/QUOTE]
