Secure your network with Snort intrusion prevention techniques
Source: Sams Publishing
This sample chapter, taken from Sams' Intrusion Detection with Snort, discusses some advanced concepts in using Snort as an alternative intrusion prevention device.
Learn why Snort IDS is a smart alternative to intrusion prevention. The process of deploying intrusion prevention is lengthier and requires greater attention to detail than installing an IDS. With Snort, a misconfigured option or rule can affect only the performance of the IDS itself. With an intrusion prevention application, a misconfiguration can literally take down your network.
This sample chapter, taken from Sams' Intrusion Detection with Snort, discusses two intrusion prevention applications that interoperate with Snort—the Snort Inline patch and SnortSam—anddemonstrates situations where they are best used.
