Since budget isn't mentioned, full blown all out Defence in depth.
NIDS inside and outside the firewall and all ingress/egress points to provide 
metrics regarding stop rate of perimeter devices.
NIDS/NIPS covering each subnet.
HIDS/HIPS in the core on critical servers.
Tripwire on all devices to detect configuration changes.

I'm hearing a lot of positive feedback regarding Tipping Point's IDS/IPS 
products.

Hello,

I'm interested in the general feel from people about what should be used in the 
following scenario:

- Large corporation (4000+ servers)
- Looking for Host-Based IDS/IPS for key servers
- Established 24x7 monitoring team
- Solution has to pick up common exploits (Buffer Overruns & API calls etc)
- Has large, established network IDS
- Only deploying on windows win2k & 2003 servers (web, email, app, db etc)
- Conservative windows server management group
- Implementing point solution SIEM (eg arcsight etc)

Given the above situation, what would you recomment?  I understand from a lot 
of research that HIPS is gathering momentum.  Any thoughts would be great, esp 
suggestions on products

Thank you
