IPS Updates

How often are the IPS signatures updated? For instance this advisory was just posted @ https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/TA17-164A

 

Thanks

The mentioned vulnerabilities are old ones which should be included in the actual IPS Patterns.

If you want detailed information regarding the vulnerabilities and how Fortinet protect you against them, you can do a search in the FortiGuard Database:

The IPS Definition is updated with a daily release from Tuesday to Friday every week. You can check the IPS release log to see if a particular CVE or vulnerability is covered. Alternatively, you can send an email to vulnwatch@fortinet.com or ips@fortinet.com to ask.
