What is the difference between a network intrusion detection system (nids) and a

Detection vs Prevention

Explanation:

A Network Intrusion Detection System as the name suggests it "detects" the attackers / vulnerabilities existed in the network system / infrastructure.A Network Intrusion Prevention Detection System as the name suggests it "prevents" the attackers from hacking the system. While a detection just detects the abnormalities where as a prevention system can prevent them. The detection system detects the vulnerabilities, security threats and the attackers in the system through the web traffic analyzers and security analyzers.The prevention system prevents the network from being compromised. It tries to regain the access if already compromised.Both the NIDS and NIPS have to be coordinated for the full protection of the network.

more than one condition can be included in the statement.

Explanation:

For example, if your mom tells you:

"You can only go out tonight if you do your homework and clean up your room"

The word and in the if condition is used to add another condition to the existant one, so the use of the word and in If statements is used to add more than one condition to the statement.
