IDS/IPS systems

Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) are cybersecurity systems that aim to detect and prevent intrusions and other security threats in the network environment.

Intrusion Detection System (IDS)

Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a cybersecurity system that monitors network traffic and system events to search for signs or abnormalities that may indicate a security breach or cybersecurity risk. IDS can use multiple methods to detect possible attacks, including:

1. Signature-based analysis: IDS compares network traffic or system events to known attack patterns or signatures. If it detects a match, it generates an alert.
2. Abnormality monitoring: IDS analyzes normal activity and looks for deviations from normal behavior. Abnormalities may be signs of possible attacks.
3. Protocol analysis: IDS monitors network traffic and system events to ensure compliance with network protocol standards. Deviations may indicate potential attacks, such as malicious network traffic or protocol misuse.
