IDS: RE: IDS ISS

[THolman () toplayer com]

Hi Anatole,

What was wrong with Snort?
There are plenty of implementations possible and it is highly tunable, plus
you get to see the signatures.
If it's performance you're worried about, consider running on a platform
such as SourceFire.
Is it purely a detection-based solution you're looking for, or do you have
the means to prevent intrusions inline already?

Regards,

Tim

Hello,

I'm testing IDS solution. After Snort, i'm beginning to work with ISS.

What's the minimum architecture to use ISS? Is it possible to use only a
network sensor? If this solution is available, what's the solution to
consult alerts?

Thanks

Anatole
