SAVER Project: Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems

Intrusion detection and prevention systems are used to detect and identify possible threats to a system, and to provide early warning to system administrators in the event that an attack is able to exploit a system vulnerability. These systems are instrumental in capturing and logging information that can later be used to investigate a data breach.
