Network sensors in front of cloud workloads detect exploit traffic and can block matching attack patterns. Which controls fill those detect and block roles?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
IDS is the smoke alarm that notices exploit traffic; IPS is the sprinkler that can stop it midstream. Together they watch (and sometimes block) bad patterns aimed at cloud workloads. Paper quizzes, homepage banners, and tape alone do not inspect live packets.
Full Explanation
IDS monitors network traffic for suspicious or exploit patterns, while IPS can actively block matching threats. These controls complement firewalls by focusing on payload and behavior signatures toward cloud workloads. Questionnaires, marketing banners, and backups do not provide runtime network exploit detection or prevention. Cloud+ security controls include IDS/IPS in cloud network defense designs.
