I concur. I would always go with Snort over ISS anyday. I've tested and ran both at the same time on the same network, and Snort not only out performs, but it would be much easier to look at the data and configure the IDS. (Or IPS.. Look into Snort-inline)

Hi Anatole,

What was wrong with Snort?
There are plenty of implementations possible and it is highly tunable, plus
you get to see the signatures.
If it's performance you're worried about, consider running on a platform
such as SourceFire.
Is it purely a detection-based solution you're looking for, or do you have
the means to prevent intrusions inline already?

Tim

Hello,

I'm testing IDS solution. After Snort, i'm beginning to work with ISS.

What's the minimum architecture to use ISS? Is it possible to use only a
network sensor? If this solution is available, what's the solution to
consult alerts?


Thanks

Anatole
