Video Description

An outsider might be inside your network and ready to release attack traffic. A disgruntled employee might be inside your system and ready to delete files. You're a systems or network admin and it's your job to prevent these types of malicious events.

Where do you begin? A good start is knowing with some certainty that the attackers are even present and a good intrusion detection system will do just that. In this video, security expert Ric Messier explains why intrusion detection systems are necessary, what they do, how they work, where to find them, and how to implement them.

Understand intrusion detection: Its meaning, its value, and how to implement it
Master the workings of host-based and network-based intrusion detection systems
Learn about network captures, cryptographic hashes, alerting, incident response, and more
Gain awareness of anomaly based and signature based intrusion detection systems
Learn to use open source intrusion detection systems like Snort, Suricata, and Bro
Understand how to perform file integrity checks using Tripwire and Samhain
Review multiple forms of built-into-the-OS IDS systems
