An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) monitors network traffic and alerts administrators of any suspicious or malicious activity detected. The Advanced Inspection and Prevention – Security Services Module (AIP-SSM) can perform intrusion detection in promiscuous mode, where it monitors traffic without interfering, or intrusion prevention in inline mode, where it actively blocks attacking traffic. The IDS provides benefits like reduced costs from infection cleanup, proactive network protection and monitoring, and near real-time updates to respond quickly to new threats when used alongside a Cisco ASA firewall.

1. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) works alongside a Cisco ASA firewall to help eliminate the threat of outside
attackers gaining access to a network. The IDS will log, block and send an alert message to the administrator if
suspicious or malicious traffic is detected.
The Advanced Inspection and Prevention – Security Services Module (AIP-SSM) is a sensor that can
perform in either promiscuous mode (IDS) or inline mode, intrusion prevention system (IPS).
Promiscuous Mode: Monitors incoming traffic and alerts the ASA firewall of malicious activity.
Inline Mode: Proactively combats attacking traffic by placing sensor directly in traffic flow.
