Intrusion Detection Systems White Papers
Why Firewall is not Enough
Overview In many cases it is obvious that a control system like firewalls and routers will protect the enterprise from some threats. The majority of damaging attacks on the enterprise comply with the enterprise security policy. Network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) were created to add a new level visibility into the nature and characteristics of the network. IDS expose packets within the data stream to identify threats from authorized users, back-door attacks and hackers who have thwarted the control systems. This white paper describes how firewall is not enough to secure the network and the need of IDS along with firewalls.
