"Top Layer has allowed us to quickly cut out malicious traffic from our network, maintain high levels of performance and save time and expenses wasted on other inefficient security scans,. We chose Top Layer over our existing TippingPoint IPS for improved performance and support, and its devices and support team have each delivered.  With a network integrator on site to address our needs, Top Layer's support was tremendous from initial testing to implementation, and it continues to provide us value each day."

"It was enlightening to see what was happening on our network, and the visibility into this world of previously undetected cyber threats reassured our team that we were doing the right thing by adding intrusion prevention technology across our industrial network. Top Layer's device was the only one that combined the high levels of performance with the deep packet inspection that made us comfortable with putting it in line in our network that simply cannot afford a minute being offline."

"We have been a Top Layer customer for over 3 years and am very pleased with the company’s products and high quality service.  In 2008 we upgraded to their newest product, the 5500 E-series to increase protection of our network security infrastructure.  The IPS was easy to deploy, increased network performance, and protects against a broad range of threats including malicious traffic and rate-based DDoS attacks.   Investing in the newest IPS technology better protects our network from current and zero-day threats."

"Top Layer's IPS 5500 was the best solution I looked at among several reputable IPS vendors. Their hardware based solution simplifies both network and security management, and the stateful firewall with deep packet inspection adds an important layer to any good defense in depth strategy beyond just raw IPS functionality.”

"Our primary requirements in the search for a suitable, high capacity technology were that it was tried and tested from a vendor with a proven background in security and in particular, IDS and IPS solutions.  After much product evaluation with a variety of vendors, including Tippingpoint, Globix chose Top layer whose technology was developed from a research and development program built on real-world experience."

"Prior to installing the Top Layer IPS, I was running around like a chicken with its head cut off five or six times a day, chasing down attack sources and disconnecting offending machines. Rather than doing my job, I was endlessly playing the role of network police officer. While we had excellent connectivity, until we installed Top Layer's IPS we had no view into where malicious traffic was originating and certainly no way to automatically drop malicious packets on-the-fly."

"On the security side, I really like Top Layer. Their IPS aren't terribly expensive, and they just tend to run. I think those niche players are the ones who will succeed, because that is something that Cisco is trying to do but doesn't do well."

"The Top Layer device was fast and easy to install without adversely impacting the network, whilst company personnel were very accommodating, worked to our timelines and understood our concerns for a phased-in approach. Top Layer took good care of us on this project and helped out with all aspects, including onsite training and help with implementation and tuning. The ability to be protected in the event of a new exploit spreading before the security community has time to address it was crucial."

"We approached a number of IPS vendors that all claimed gigabit performance, but in reality, none of them could even handle an attack based on fast Ethernet speeds. These are the reasons why we turned to Top Layer."

"Prior to installing the IPS 5500, the school was experiencing anywhere from 60,000 - 100,000 attacks a day - from older worms such as Morris, Slammer and Sapphire, to zero-day attacks designed to grind the network to a halt.  Once the IPS 5500 was brought online, all of the inbound attacks were stopped at the perimeter."

"We decided to implement an IPS on the network carrying information between our headquarters and some 350 company-owned and franchised stores.  PCI was an impetus for making the move.  On any given day, the Top layer IPS drops over 125,000 malicious packets and the installation has not created any extra work or procedural change at the store level."
