Trellix Network Detection and Response (NDR) vs. FortiGate IPS

Trellix Network Detection and Response (NDR) converts passive network monitoring into proactive defense. It inspects all hybrid cloud traffic—north-south and east-west—to eliminate blind spots, uncover unmanaged devices, and detect lateral threat movement. Central to its capability is Trellix Wise, a built-in generative AI engine that automates complex forensics, triage, and threat investigations. Wise leverages specialized AI agents to turn cryptic telemetry into plain-language narratives, draft automated remediation steps, and prioritize high-fidelity alerts.

Whether part of a firewall solution or a separate standalone appliance, Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) technology is becoming an increasingly ubiquitous part of network security defenses.
