IBM QRadar

The latest adapter bundle #13 is now available for download on FixCentral.
QRadar Risk Manager uses adapters to collect network configurations. The adapters turn the configuration information into a standard format that is unified for supported device models, manufacturers, and types. QRadar Risk Manager uses the data to understand your network topology and configuration of your network devices.

With every bundle comes new supported features as well as defect fixes and performance improvements; it is essential to keep the adapters up-to-date.

What's new?

In this bundle 13 we've added:

• New Cisco NGIPS adapter for backing up the NGIPS IPS (formerly Sourcefire IPS). It supports up to version 6.2.
• New "Discover From FirePOWER Management Center" for discovering Cisco NGIPS devices.
• Performance enhancements for Juniper JunOS adapter.
