What are examples of methods for threat detection?

1. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS): These systems monitor network traffic and look for suspicious activity, such as unauthorized access attempts or malicious code.
2. Firewalls: These systems act as a barrier between the internal network and the outside world, blocking malicious traffic from entering the network.
3. Network Access Controls: These controls limit access to the network based on a user’s credentials or other security measures.
4. Security Information and Event Management (SIEM): These tools collect and analyze log data from multiple sources to detect potential threats.
5. Antivirus Software: These tools are designed to detect and remove malicious software from a system.
6. File Integrity Monitoring: This technique monitors changes to system files and looks for any suspicious activity.
7. Database Activity Monitoring: This method monitors database access and looks for any suspicious queries or activities.
8. Endpoint Security: These solutions protect endpoints, such as laptops, by detecting and blocking malicious activity.
