To successfully defend against intrusions, Trellix recommends dedicated monitoring of the security system. Network intrusions can happen at any given moment, so having a dedicated 24-hour-a-day prevention system will make the security solution complete and effective.

Where are your security personnel? How many users are involved? Knowing who will be configuring your policies, monitoring events, running reports, and performing other configuration tasks will help you manage your users and determine where you locate your Trellix IPS Manager server. The Manager should be placed in a physically secure location, should be logically accessible to users, and must have reliable connectivity so as to be able to communicate with all deployed Sensors.
