different types of ids and ips systems
Currently, there are two types of IPSs that are similar in nature to IDS. They consist of host-based intrusion prevention systems (HIPS) products and network-based intrusion prevention systems (NIPS).
Intrusion detection systems (IDS) can be classified into different ways. The major classifications are Active and passive IDS, Network Intrusion detection systems (NIDS) and host Intrusion detection systems (HIDS)
