IDS Policy Manager v3.0 Standalone Beta 1 Released - Friday, December 05, 2008

IDS Policy Manager v3.0 Standalone Beta has been released. This release has been a year in the making with hundreds of hours dedicated to it. There are significant changes in the way the product now works and how it stores rules.

Over the last few years we have moved from each policy being opened indivdually in v1.x, to all the rules stored in a database, but all policies stayed separate in v2.x, to all rules shared among all the polices in v3.x. This change makes it much easier to manage multiple policies. You may still have unique rules per policy, but when you have over 20,000 rules that are updated by another source it just doesn't make sense to store each rule for each policy.

In IDSPM v3 each rule is stored 1 time per update location. This greatly decreases the bloating effect of duplicating storage that was done in v2. It also allows you to quickly make changes to all policies that use a rule by disabling it across the board, or enabling it on only some policies.

We have also added a lot more usability functionality such as new dashboards, new policy overviews and make the product easier to use. A lot of time has been put into helping the user use the product. You will notice this from when you first run it. No longer do you need to guess how to get started.. IDSPM will walk you through getting things setup.

Remember this is a beta and if you have any questions or comments, please post them in the forum or send an email to us.
