IDS/IPS OVERVIEW
Intrusion Detection/Intrusion Prevention System (IDS/IPS) is a network security
system designed to identify intrusive or malicious behavior via monitoring of
network activity. The IDS/IPS identifies suspicious patterns that may indicate an
attempt to attack, break in, or otherwise compromise a system. IDS/IPS can be
network-based or host-based, passive or reactive, and can rely on either misuse
detection or anomaly detection.
