Intrusion Detection systems

[leeym]

Can someone recommend a solid IDS software package other than SNORT for a Windows environment?

Thanks

Can I ask why you have ruled out snort.Just curious.

I highly doubt you'll find anything that isn't based on snort.

For example, how does SNORT compare to Symantec Client Security 2.0?

I guess my main concern is if SNORT covers all the main ISD issues, or is it best to complement it with other ISD freeware?

Thanks

Other than snort?
Dragon (unix only last time I checked)
ISS Real Secure (can't this use snort these days?)
Cisco Netranger(what is it called now?)
prelude-ids (uses snort rules)

They all suck to varying degrees.
