What are two characteristics of both IPS and IDS sensors? (Choose two.)

neither introduce latency or jitter
both use signatures to detect patterns
both are deployed inline in the data stream
both can stop trigger packets
both can detect atomic patterns

Explanation: IDS sensors work off line and are passive. They add very little latency, however they cannot stop trigger packets. An IPS can stop trigger packets but because they are installed inline they add some latency and jitter to the traffic.
