An intrusion detection system (IDS) monitors traffic on your network, analyzes that traffic for signatures matching known attacks, and when something suspicious happens, you're alerted. In the meantime, the traffic keeps flowing. An intrusion prevention system (IPS) also monitors traffic.
Do IPS and IDS work together?
IDS and IPS work together to provide a network security solution. ... An IDS often requires assistance from other networking devices, such as routers and firewalls, to respond to an attack. An IPS works inline in the data stream to provide protection from malicious attacks in real time.
How does an IPS device identify the attack?
An IPS prevents attacks by dropping malicious packets, blocking offending IPs and alerting security personnel to potential threats. Such a system usually uses a preexisting database for signature recognition and can be programmed to recognize attacks based on traffic and behavioral anomalies.
