Overview In today's business environment, network intruders and attackers can come from both outside and inside the network. They can launch Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks or Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks; attack Internet connections; and exploit network and host vulnerabilities. There is often no time to wait for human intervention - the network itself must possess the intelligence to instantaneously recognize and mitigate these attacks, threats, exploits, worms, and viruses. Cisco IOS Software Intrusion Prevention System (Cisco IOS IPS), with inline intrusion capabilities, is the first system in the industry to provide an inline, deep-packet-inspection-based IPS solution that helps enable Cisco routers to effectively mitigate a wide range of network attacks.
