I think Protocol Parsers is the best choice because it deals with packet inspection.

I'm going with C) Protocol Parsers. Seems like the most logical choice to handle the TCP connection issues. Although, a 'Passive Streaming Library' does sound pretty funny.

B) Protections is the way to go. The IPS needs to have the right protections in place to deal with these types of malformed packets.

Haha, I bet the answer is A) Passive Streaming Library. That's gotta be a trick question, right? Who even uses that in an IPS?

D) Context Management sounds like the right answer to me. The IPS needs to maintain context to understand the state of the connection and properly handle these types of packets.

I think the answer is C) Protocol Parsers. The protocol parsers in the IPS layer would be responsible for handling out-of-sequence or fragmented packets to ensure proper inspection.
