How does one obtain it?

IDERS is a product (under permanent improvement) which collects data from
numerous probes at various subsystem (network, file system, process use,
commands, data contained in files...). The probes report data to a central
program which try to make clear and understandable reports.
It tries to detect fuzzy attack which are not often detected with
normal tools).
IDERS is a commercial _service_, it's not sold but installed for our clients
as a tool for our security service.
