Surprised people don’t mention C more, installation matters!

Really? I’m not convinced that network-based is always better.

I think A is a big plus too, no resource drain.

I thought the ease of installation was a point for network-based systems, but now I'm questioning if that's really the main advantage.

I feel like I saw a practice question similar to this, and it was about how network-based IDS/IPS can monitor multiple hosts at once. That might relate to option B.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about host-based solutions using more resources, so maybe that's why network-based ones are better?

I think the main advantage is that network-based systems can inspect all traffic at the boundary, right? That seems to make sense.

The main advantage of a network-based IDS/IPS is that it doesn't use host system resources, which is option A. That seems like the most straightforward answer to me.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know the differences between the two, but I'm not sure which one is the "main" advantage. I'll have to think about this a bit more.

Okay, let me think this through. The key advantage of a network-based system is that it can inspect all traffic at the boundary, which a host-based solution can't do. I'll go with option B.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the differences between network-based and host-based IDS/IPS, but I'm not sure which specific advantage they're looking for here.

This seems like a straightforward question about the advantages of network-based IDS/IPS over host-based solutions. I'm pretty confident I can figure this out.

I'm pretty confident I know the answer to this one. The code is creating 10 new accounts, and the org already has 5 accounts, so the total will be 15 accounts.

Option B is the way to go. Positioning the IDS/IPS at the network boundary is like having a security guard at the front door - they can see everything coming and going.

I don't know, man. As long as it doesn't interfere with my gaming, I'm good with any of these options. Wait, do network-based IDS systems play Fortnite?

Definitely B. Being able to inspect all traffic is crucial for an effective IDS/IPS. Who cares about host resources when you can catch all the bad guys!
