There are two basic ways to tell if a network or system is under attack. These are with intrusion-detection systems (IDSs) and intrusion-protection systems (IPSs). Discuss how each of these approaches is different. Do not forget to include how network-based and hosted-based systems come into play.
You work for a small bank that has only 11 branches, and you must design a system that gives notice of a possible attack. Discuss what tools can be used, how they can be implemented to protect the bank, and how they can notify the appropriate people when the network comes under attack.
