An Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) is a security solution that not only monitors network traffic for malicious activity but also takes proactive measures to prevent detected threats from executing.
• Used in corporate networks to block malicious traffic in real time, preventing data breaches and malware infections.• Employed alongside firewalls and IDS to provide comprehensive network security.
While firewalls filter traffic based on predefined rules, an IPS actively monitors for suspicious behavior and blocks or mitigates threats in real time.
Key features include real-time threat detection, automatic blocking, and integration with other security tools for incident response.
An IPS can generate false positives, potentially blocking legitimate traffic, and may require fine-tuning to avoid disrupting business operations.
