An intrusion detection system does not perform which of the following?

  • A.Tries to identify attempts to hack into a computer system.
  • B.May monitor packets passing over the network.
  • C.May transmit message packets to the correct destination.
  • D.Set up deception systems that attempt to trap hackers.

Answer: C

Correct answer: May transmit message packets to the correct destination.

Forwarding packets to their destination is the work of a router. An intrusion detection system watches rather than forwards: it inspects traffic for signs of attack, looks for known attack signatures, and may run deception systems to draw an intruder into a monitored area.
