an application proxy firewall normally looks for packets that do not behave like how they are supposed to be as defined by the protocol standards (RFC)..while an IDS looks for signs of an active attack in a perfectly legitimate packet that is crafted according to standards..of course..misbehaving packets are normally picked out by an IDS as well. hope this helps! 2008/10/22 <maash.rajani () gmail com>
Can someone please explain how is an IDS different from an application proxy firewall in terms of what each of them looks for in a packet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Test Your IDS Is your IDS deployed correctly?
