Description

In modern IT infrastructures, it is becoming increasingly important to protect company resources. Not only must company resources be defended passively, but the protection also must be constantly monitored and enhanced with systems that actively inspect the data that is passed over allowed and open connections. Intrusion prevention and intrusion detection systems are two technologies that can provide such risk reduction.
Cisco provides various Cisco Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) sensor platforms that satisfy different requirements for network integration and performance.This course describes the basic definitions of and approaches to intrusion prevention and intrusion detection.
