IPS CODE AND ITS IMPLEMENTATIONS

# Import IPS module
import ips
# Initialize IPS sensor
sensor = ips.Sensor()
# Define rules and signatures
rules = {
"block-incoming-traffic": "DROP INCOMING TRAFFIC",
"block-outgoing-traffic": "DROP OUTGOING TRAFFIC"
}
signatures = {
"malware-traffic": "DETECT MALWARE TRAFFIC",
"port-scanning": "DETECT PORT SCANNING",
"sql-injection": "DETECT SQL INJECTION",
"cross-site-scripting": "DETECT CROSS-SITE SCRIPTING",
"credential-stuffing": "DETECT CREDENTIAL STUFFING"
}
# Set up IPS to use rules and signatures
sensor.set_rules(rules)
sensor.set_signatures(signatures)
# Set up logging
logging.basicConfig(filename='ips.log', level=logging.INFO)
# Set up email alerting
email_alerts = ips.EmailAlerts(
sender='ips@mycompany.com',
recipients=['security-team@mycompany.com'],
smtp_server='smtp.mycompany.com'
)
# Monitor network traffic
while True:
traffic = get_network_traffic()
if sensor.detect_threat(traffic):
sensor.block_traffic(traffic)
logging.info(f"Blocked traffic: {traffic}")
email_alerts.send_alert(f"IPS detected threat: {traffic}")
I start by initializing an IPS sensor and defining a set of rules and signatures that the sensor will use to detect threats. I configure the sensor to use these rules and signatures using the set_rules and set_signatures methods.
Next, Ill set up logging using Python's built-in logging module. This will allow us to track and analyze IPS events over time.
We also set up email alerting using a custom EmailAlerts class. This will send an email to the security team whenever the IPS detects a threat. We configure the sender, recipients, and SMTP server using the constructor of the EmailAlerts class.
Finally, we enter a loop to monitor network traffic. We use the get_network_traffic function to retrieve incoming network traffic, and pass it to the detect_threat method of the IPS sensor. If a threat is detected, we use the block_traffic method to block the traffic and log the event using the logging module. We also send an email alert using the EmailAlerts class
