Evading IDS, Firewalls, and Honeypots
How attackers dodge detection, and how defenders catch them.
About this module
Defenders watch for attacks with an IDS, block them with a firewall, and trap them with a honeypot. This focused build covers the eight topics that matter most: how each defense works, how attackers evade IDS and firewalls, how to spot and defeat honeypots, and how a well-tuned defense still catches the evasion.
