Andrew,

ISS server sensor and Proventia server do offer a broad range of anomaly
detection techniques:

Firstly there are the pam based signatures. Most of the newer signatures
are actually anomaly based rather than pattern based, because they
differentiate between "good" and "bad" protocol usage.
Secondly there are the audit type signatures where you find categories
like "unusual admin activity", which can detect anomalies.
Thirdly there are "Suspect connections" aka honeypot which will alert
you of anomal usage of a networked server.
Number two and three can be extended using user defined signatures to
detect anomalies from what the server was designed for to do. Proventia
server is offering some additional anomaly features like Buffer Overflow
Exploit Protection (BOEP). I am not so sure what you are looking for
specifically, but this might give you a rough idea of what can be done.

Dear colleagues,

Do you know if the combination of Site Protector and Server Sensors offer any 
anomaly detection functionality? All I was able to find in the documentation 
is the reference to the ISS ADS devices.

Thanks,

Andrew
