摘要：Intrusions in computing environment are a very common undesired malicious activity that is going on since the inception of computing resources. A number of security measures have taken place for the last three decades, but as Technology has grown up, so as the security threats. With the whole world depending on computers, being directly or indirectly, it is a very important issue to prevent the malicious activities and threats that can hamper the computing infrastructures. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) are the standard measures to secure computing resources mostly in a network. They are deployed in a network for assuring an intrusion free computing environment. In this paper, we shall discuss the two technologies in details, their functionality, their performances and their effectiveness to stop the malicious activity over a computer network.
