Protect Your Information with Intrusion Detection (Power)

Intrusion detection systems can and should be used for collecting proof of unauthorized activity. They provide the following functional capabilities:

• Logging events that take place during an attack, and saving this information for future analysis

• Imitating non-existent applications in order to deceive the intruder (the so-called deception mode)

• Enhanced analysis of the log files created by the system and application software, database servers, web servers, and so on

• The possibility of investigating security events before taking any specific action

• Obtaining information on the intruder, including his DNS, MAC, NetBIOS, and IP addresses
