NANOG'ers,
I've been tasked by our company president to learn about, investigate =
and recommend an intrusion detection system for our company.
We're a smaller outfit, less than 100 employees, entirely Apple-based. =
Macs, iPhones, some Mac Mini servers, etc., and a fiber connection to =
the world. We are protected by a FreeBSD firewall setup, and we stay =
current on updates/patches from Apple and FreeBSD, but that's as far as =
my expertise goes.
Initially, what do people recommend for:
1. Crash course in intrusion detection as a whole
2. Suggestions or recommendations for intrusion detection hardware or =
software
3. Other things I'm likely overlooking
Thank you all in advance for your wisdom.
