IDP800 Overview:
Juniper Networks IDP800 Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances offer continual intrusion detection security management coverage to the networks and network applications of mid-size and large enterprises and service providers.
With the growing number of applications allowed in from the Internet and the increased exposure to sophisticated network attacks, it’s ever more important for companies to safeguard their networks. Evasive methods of delivering exploits continue to increase and the problem is further compounded by the growing number of application and OS vulnerabilities, as well as the increasing speed with which new attacks are created to exploit these vulnerabilities. Juniper Networks IDP Series Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances offer the latest capabilities in in-line network intrusion prevention system (IPS) functionality to manage the use of unwanted applications and protect the network from a wide range of attacks delivered by those allowed applications. IDP Series appliances deliver comprehensive threat coverage and industry-leading response time for maximum protection of network resources.
Juniper Networks® IDP Series Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances provide comprehensive management of unwanted applications and easy-to-use in-line protection that stops network- and application-level attacks before they inflict any damage, minimizing the time and costs associated with maintaining a secure network. Using industry-recognized stateful detection and prevention techniques, the IDP Series provides zero-day protection against worms, trojans, spyware, key loggers, and other malware from penetrating the network or spreading from already infected users.
IDP Series Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances not only help protect networks against attacks, they provide information on rogue servers, as well as types and versions of applications and operating systems that may have unknowingly been added to the network. Application signatures, available on the IDP Series, go a step further by enabling accurate detection and reporting of volume used by applications such as social networking, peer-to-peer, or instant messaging. Armed with the knowledge of specific applications running in the network, administrators can use application policy enforcement rules to easily manage these applications by limiting bandwidth, restricting their use, or prioritizing them lower with DiffServ marking. Not only can administrators control the access of specific applications, they can ensure that business-critical applications receive a predictable quality of service (QoS) while enforcing security policies to maintain compliance with corporate application usage policies.
Collaborative projects are commonplace in today’s workplace. Making sure that security policies are easily enforced requires knowledge of how those collaborative user groups are formed. The IDP Series works in harmony with Juniper Networks Unified Access Control infrastructure to enforce application and security policies based on user-role information learned from the IC Series Unified Access Control Appliances. The IC Series interacts with companies’ Active Directory (AD) or LDAP servers to assign users to roles and provides host information upon which the IDP Series can act. This extends the application policy enforcement (APE) and IPS rules for management of applications and more control over threats.
Juniper Networks IDP250 and IDP800 Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances offer market-leading IPS capabilities for mid-size and large enterprises as well as service providers. Supporting various high availability (HA) options, the IDP250 and IDP800 offer continual security coverage for enterprise and service provider networks.
IDP Series Intrusion Detection and Prevention Appliances are managed by Juniper Networks Network and Security Manager, a centralized, rule-based management solution offering granular control over the system’s behavior. NSM also provides easy access to extensive logging, fully customizable reporting, and management of all Juniper Networks firewall/VPN/IDP Series appliances from a single user interface. With the combination of highest security coverage, granular network control, and visibility and centralized management, the IDP Series is the best solution to keep critical information assets safe.

| Protocol decodes | More than 60 protocol decodes are supported along with more than 500 contexts to enforce proper usage of protocols. | Accuracy of signatures is improved through precise context of protocols. |
| Predefined and custom signatures1 | More than 6,200 predefined signatures are included for identifying anomalies, attacks, spyware, and applications. Customization of signatures to personalize the attack database is allowed. | Attacks are accurately identified and attempts at exploiting a known vulnerability are detected. Customers fine-tune the attack database specific to their environment to avoid false-positives. |
| Traffic interpretation | Reassembly, normalization, and protocol decoding are provided. | Overcome attempts to bypass other IDP Series detections by using obfuscation methods. |
| Application Volume Tracking (AVT) | This tracks and collects volumetric application usage information. | This aids in proper creation of application policies based on observed network bandwidth consumption by application. |
| Zero-day protection | Protocol anomaly detection and same-day coverage for newly found vulnerabilities are provided. | Your network is already protected against any new exploits. |
| Recommended policy | Group of attack signatures are identified by Juniper Networks Security Team as critical for the typical enterprise to protect against. | Installation and maintenance are simplified while ensuring the highest network security. |
1As of June 2009, there are 6,200 signatures available with daily updates provided.
Traffic Detection Methods
The IDP Series offers a combination of eight different detection methods to accurately identify the traffic flowing through the network. By providing the highest flexibility, the various detection methods also minimize false positives.
| Features | Features Description | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Stateful signature detection | Signatures are applied only to relevant portions of the network traffic determined by the appropriate protocol context. | Minimize false positives. |
| Protocol anomaly detection | Protocol usage against published RFCs is verified to detect any violations or abuse. | Proactively protect network from undiscovered vulnerabilities. |
| Backdoor detection | Heuristic-based anomalous traffic patterns and packet analysis detect trojans and rootkits. | Prevent proliferation of malware in case other security measures have been compromised. |
| Traffic anomaly detection | Heuristic rules detect unexpected traffic patterns that may suggest reconnaissance or attacks. | Proactively prevent reconnaissance activities or block distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. |
| IP spoofing detection | The validity of allowed addresses inside and outside the network is checked. | Permit only authentic traffic while blocking disguised source. |
| Denial of service (DoS) detection | SYN cookie-based protection from SYN flood attacks is provided. | Protect your key network assets from being overwhelmed with SYN floods. |
| Layer 2 detection | Layer 2 attacks are detected using implied rules for Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) table restrictions, fragment handling, connection timeouts, and byte/length thresholds for packets. | Prevent compromised host from polluting an internal network using methods such as ARP cache poisoning. |
| Network honeypot | Open ports are impersonated with fake resources to track reconnaissance activities. | Gain insight into real-world network threats and proactively defend your network before a critical asset can be attacked. |
Granular Traffic Control
To support a wide range of business requirements, the IDP Series offers granular visibility and control over the flow of traffic in the network. Customers can interact with the IDP Series appliances using an application focus, threat prevention focus, or both by utilizing the application enforcement policy rules and IPS policy rules, respectively.
