Description
Intrusion Detection Systems
The Cisco ASA 5510 3 Ports Network Security Appliance with AIP10SP-K9 (ASA5510-AIP10SP-K9) has a built-in intrusion detection system (IDS) that provides network security by detecting and alerting on potential security threats. The IDS system analyzes network traffic and compares it to a set of predefined security policies.
The system uses signature-based detection, which identifies known malicious activity, and anomaly-based detection, which looks for unusual activity that may indicate an attack. The IDS system is capable of analyzing traffic at multiple levels, including packet level and application level, to provide a comprehensive view of network activity.
The IDS system can also be configured to take proactive measures to protect the network by automatically blocking traffic from known malicious sources or by triggering an alert for manual review and intervention. Additionally, the system is capable of providing detailed logs of all IDS events, allowing for in-depth analysis and reporting.
