Network-based intrusion detection systems (NIDS) monitor network traffic for suspicious activity and can be configured to focus specifically on a particular network segment. Host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS) monitor activity and behavior on individual devices, while system-based and LAN-based intrusion detection are not commonly used terms in the industry.
