I agree with an early post on this thread that IPS is basically a BS marketing term. A buzzword like "B2B". IPS is not a BS *concept* but techs can not let marketing ppl define our lingo (since they don't understand what they are describing) or we risk mass confusion, which it seems is happening here. So IDS and firewalls seem to be doing some overlapping functions, good, I hope the functionality matures. But I think we should let the Powerpoint brigade argue over what to call things in pamphlets. It's been a long day so this may come across way more offensive-sounding than I mean it. --- Frank Knobbe <frank () knobbe us> wrote: > On Thu, 2003-08-28 at 01:46, Gordon Cunningham wrote: > > Black Ice Defender did this a few years ago... based on > signatures, the > > system could detect some attack types and automatically > react by preventing > > access from the source IP or port for some period of time. > > > Right.
