About TippingPoint

TippingPoint is a leading global provider of comprehensive network security solutions that address the security and regulatory compliance needs of complex network environments. With the TippingPoint IPS-Secured Network, which includes the TippingPoint Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and Network Access Control (NAC) solution, network infrastructure, applications, and critical data are protected from malicious cyber attacks. TippingPoint's 360° approach to network security enables enterprises to enforce security policies across all users, devices, traffic flows and content; while preserving existing infrastructure and ensuring business continuity to help lower total cost of ownership.

TippingPoint's security intelligence is powered by DVLabs, TippingPoint's premier team of expert internal researchers for vulnerability analysis and discovery. The team consists of industry recognized security researchers that apply cutting-edge engineering, reverse engineering and analysis talents in their daily operations. The by-product of these efforts fuels the creation of vulnerability filters that are automatically delivered to customers' intrusion prevention systems through the Digital Vaccine® service.

DVLabs is supplemented by over 1,000 external Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) researchers. Founded in 2005 by TippingPoint, ZDI rewards security researchers for responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities. ZDI strives to extend the DVLabs team by leveraging the methodologies, expertise, and time of others; encourage the reporting of zero day vulnerabilities responsibly to the affected vendors by financially rewarding researchers; and protect TippingPoint customers through the TippingPoint IPS while the affected vendor is working on a patch.
