NIST SP800-94 -- Final Guide to (IDPS)

`SP 800-94 <http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/nistpubs/#sp800-94>`_, *Guide to Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS)*, seeks to assist organizations in understanding intrusion detection system and intrusion prevention system technologies and in designing, implementing, configuring, securing, monitoring, and maintaining intrusion detection and prevention system (IDPS) solutions. It provides practical, real-world guidance for each of four classes of IDPS products: network-based, wireless, network behavior analysis software, and host-based. The publication also provides an overview of complementary technologies that can detect intrusions, such as security information and event management software. It focuses on enterprise IDPS solutions, but most of the information in the publication is also applicable to standalone and small-scale IDPS deployments. This publication replaces NIST SP 800-31, Intrusion Detection Systems.
