What is the benefit of the network-based IPS (NIPS) over host-based IPS (HIPS) deployment models?
- NIPS provides individual host protection.
- NIPS relies on centrally managed software agents.
- NIPS monitors network segments.
- NIPS monitors all operations within an operating system.
Explanation: The network-based IPS (NIPS) is deployed in a network to monitor traffic in the network. Different from the host-based IPS (HIPS), NIPS does not provides protection to specific individual hosts. The operation of NIPS does not rely on the operating system of individual hosts nor centrally managed software agents.
