WRVS4400N v2: IPS SIGNATURES || 365 days without an update??

Good day!

I wanted to know how often Cisco determines it should be releasing new updated IPS signatures to ensure customers are being adequately protected from the latest threats? That is for those of us who choose to use the feature.

As you can see in the last posting about this very issue, it took Cisco over 365 days to release one signle IPS file.

Is the IPS file comparable to a virus definition file? Or does the IPS file simply not require being updated by Cisco... for years at a time.

I'm finding that development on updated IPS files are being neglected by the Cisco development team.

It will soon be comming up to August 9, 2012. That will make the last published IPS update 365 days old.

Thanks for any insight you may provide.

Sincerely,

Christopher Laurie
