Beyond IDS: Essentials of Network Intrusion Prevention

ABOUT THIS WHITE PAPER

Date Published:
26 NOV 2002

About the White Paper:
Companies are now recognizing that it costs much less to prevent attacks than to repair the associated damages related to a cyber attack. This is the idea behind Intrusion Prevention Solutions (IPS). This white paper will review critical weaknesses of network intrusion detection technology (nIDS) that can affect the security of your network, and a new breed of IPS products that can help alleviate these issues.

For years, the philosophy behind network Intrusion Detection could be summarized as "Detect as many attacks and intrusions as possible, and report them, so that others may take action." In contrast, network Intrusion Prevention Systems have been designed with a new philosophy: "Take decisive action on those attacks or intrusions which can be accurately detected."
