Uses of IDPS Technologies Sample Clauses

Uses of IDPS Technologies. IDPSs are primarily focused on identifying possible incidents. For example, an IDPS could detect when an attacker has successfully compromised a system by exploiting a vulnerability in the system. The IDPS could also log information that could be used by the incident handlers. Many IDPSs can also be configured to recognise violations of security policies. Also, some IDPSs can monitor file transfers and identify any that might be suspicious, such as copying a large database to a user’s laptop. Many IDPSs can also identify reconnaissance activity, which may indicate that an attack is imminent. IPS technologies are differentiated from IDS technologies by one characteristic: IPS technologies can respond to a detected threat by attempting to prevent it from succeeding. They use several response techniques, which can be divided into the following groups: The IPS stops the attack itself. The IPS changes the security environment. The IPS could change the configuration of other security controls to disrupt an attack. Some IPSs can even cause patches to be applied to a host if the IPS detects that the host has vulnerabilities. The IPS changes the attack’s content. Some IPS technologies can remove or replace malicious portions of an attack to make it benign. This might cause certain attacks to be discarded as part of the normalisation process. Another common attribute of IDPS technologies is that they cannot provide completely accurate detection. When an IDPS incorrectly identifies benign activity as being malicious, a false positive has occurred. When an IDPS fails to identify malicious activity, a false negative has occurred. It is not possible to eliminate all false positives and negatives; in most cases, reducing the occurrences of one increases the occurrences of the other. Most IDPS technologies also offer features that compensate for the use of common evasion techniques. Evasion is modifying the format or timing of malicious activity so that its appearance changes but its effect is the same. Most IDPS technologies can overcome common evasion techniques by duplicating special processing performed by the targets.
