The NinjaBox Z-series allocates traffic across Intel processors to enable standard servers to boost performance of applications such as the industry-standard Snort Network-based Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) up to 8X.

Weve been able to use Snort the way we want to and still inspect 100 percent of the traffic. Our maintenance is easier and we havent had to compromise on thoroughness”]
