The network device must interconnect and configure individual intrusion detection tools into a system-wide intrusion detection system using common protocols.

Overview

Finding ID	Version	Rule ID	IA Controls	Severity

Description
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) or Intrusion protection Systems (IPSs) must be deployed at strategic locations within the network. At a minimum, they should be deployed within the DMZ and behind the network device. It is important to not only monitor traffic entering the enclave but also leaving. Placing a sensor behind the network device will provide a clear analysis of what type of traffic and potential attacks are passing through the device. Monitoring outbound traffic enables the network operator to detect an attack towards another network with the local enclave as the base. This control applies to monitoring by intrusion detection systems and is not applicable to network device management.
