HIDS
(Host-based Intrusion Detection System)
A Host-based Intrusion Detection System (HIDS) is a security tool that monitors and analyzes the internal operations of a single host or device to detect suspicious activity. HIDS is used to identify threats like malware, unauthorized access, and policy violations.
HIDS works by examining system logs, file integrity, and user activity to detect anomalies. It is often used in conjunction with NIDS (Network-based Intrusion Detection System) to provide comprehensive security coverage. HIDS is essential for protecting critical systems, such as servers and workstations, from internal and external threats.
