IntruVert Networks

IntruVert Networks was a network intrusion-prevention company founded in 2000 in San Jose, California, and backed by Trinity Ventures. Its IntruShield product line combined purpose-built inline intrusion-prevention appliances with the IntruShield Manager to detect and block network attacks in real time. McAfee (then Network Associates) acquired IntruVert in May 2003 for approximately $103 million, folding the technology into its intrusion-prevention portfolio. The company no longer operates independently and publishes no live developer or API surface; this record is retained for historical/portfolio-graph purposes only.
