Intrusion prevention system is a sub-project of network switch, and it is a private exchange with the function of filtering attacks. Generally, it is distributed between the firewall and the external network equipment, and it relies on the detection of data packets to defend it (check the data packets entering the network, determine the real purpose of the data packets, and then decide whether to allow them to enter the internal network).
