| Description | TheWorldWideWeb has evolved from a system for serving an interconnected set of static documents to what is now a powerful, versatile, and large platform for application delivery and information dissemination. Companies and organizations have increasingly put critical resources and sensitive data online. Unfortunately, with the webs explosive growth in power and popularity has come a concomitant increase in both the number and impact of cyber criminals. The magnitude of the problem has prompted much interest within the security community towards researching mechanisms that can mitigate this threat. To this end, intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPSs) have been proposed as a potential means of identifying and preventing the successful exploitation of computer networks. In this paper we present an overview of the current intrusion and prevention systems methodologies and offer a clear explanation for each methodology. In addition we provide a comparison between these methodologies to easily grasp the overall picture of IDPS. |
