CMP 450: MACHINE LEARNING AND NETWORK INTRUSION PROFESSOR FARMER ADVANTAGES OF HIDS AND NIDS FUNCTIONS OF THE HIDS AND NIDS • The main purpose of intrusion detection is to protect the network from malware by monitoring the traffic and the network devices to prevent anomalous activities by adversaries. • NIDS has a table that contains all active connections and maintains the state for each connection. If the NIDS sees a packet not associated with any known connection, it creates a new entry in the table. For example, a connection that started before the NIDS started running. • NIDS can be used for more sophisticated network monitoring. It not only detects attacks but also analyzes and understands all the network traffic. TWO CONTENT LAYOUT WITH SMARTART WHAT ENVIRONMENT SHOULD YOU USE A HIDS OR NIDS HIDS AND NIDS ENVIRONMENTS •Both HIDS and NIDS can be valuable tools for protecting your network from cyber attacks. However, the best choice for your business depends on several factors, including the size of your network, the types of systems you use, and the level of security you require. •If you have a large network with many machines and users, NIDS may be the better option. NIDS can monitor all network traffic, regardless of the location or configuration of individual machines. HIDS, on the other hand, may be more appropriate for smaller networks with fewer machines, where individual hosts are easier to manage. •In conclusion, Intrusion detection systems are a critical component of any cybersecurity strategy, and both HIDS and NIDS have their advantages and limitations. By understanding the differences between these two solutions, you can make an informed decision about which one is right for your business. Whether you choose HIDS, NIDS, or a combination of both, taking proactive steps to protect your network can help safeguard your data and reputation from cyber threats. SHORT 10 MIN BREAK QUICK REVIEW OF INFORMATION OSI- MODEL Which layer does an IDS Work On? Click icon to add picture ADD A SLIDE TITLE - 5
