IPS

Intrusion Prevention System

Definition

An IPS sits inline with network traffic and actively blocks connections that match attack signatures or behavioral anomalies, extending IDS capabilities with automated enforcement. Modern IPS is often integrated into NGFWs or delivered as a cloud service.

False positive rates are a key concern — overly aggressive blocking can disrupt legitimate business traffic.
